- Betamethasone can make it harder for you to fight off infections. Notify your doctor if you have any signs of infection such as a fever or sore throat.

- Do not stop taking Betamethasone suddenly without talking to your doctor first as it may worsen your symptoms.
- You have been prescribed Neomycin for the treatment of bacterial skin infections.

- Don't apply it to broken skin and avoid getting it in your eyes, nose or mouth.
- Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor, as this may increase the risk of side effects.
