A member asked:

Can you use lotrisone (clotrimazole and betamethasone) cream on your skin?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes, but: Lotrisone (clotrimazole and betamethasone) can be used on the skin, but only for the right reasons. The antifungal part gets rid of some tinea infections, while the steroid part cuts down on redness, itching, and inflammation. A doctor can evaluate to see if such a cream should be used, and importantly, for how long it should be used.
