Reviews

We picked up some feedback from people about the Belosalik drug:

Victoria. I chose a drug for the treatment of neurodermatitis according to doctors' opinions. Many positive responses found about the ointment Belosalik, and then bought it. In comparison with other hormonal drugs, Belosalik is a more expensive drug, but after the first application it noticed that the spots lost a pronounced red color and stopped itching. Already after 5 days of using the ointment from the neurodermite there is no trace.
Tatyana. Two years ago there was a psoriasis. Those who do not know, I will explain that it manifests itself in the form of dry, dense patches on the skin, which constantly itch, itch, crackle to the blood. The doctor said that the disease started on a nervous basis and prescribed "Belosalik". It turned out to be a transparent oily ointment that softens the diseased parts of the skin and soothes itching and pain. Usually, I smeared the affected places on the lunch break and before going to bed so that it could absorb. The week after two spots became smaller, and in some cases disappeared altogether. Of course, the disease is not completely cured, but "Belosalik" brings relief during an exacerbation. Only they are saved.
Julia. After birth, a rash appeared on my small skin area. Doctors even after the tests and several examinations could not determine the exact cause of its occurrence, and it was still necessary to treat. They attributed this ointment. The price is affordable and can be found in any pharmacy. Although the course of treatment was one month, but the result was noticeable already in the second week. Mazala problem site twice a day, at the end of the course was enough only once. I did not notice any side effects, but the doctor feared that there might be itching and a slight reddening. Now from my disease there was not the slightest trace left.
Nastya. Not very happy that Belosalik hormonal drug and has a lot of contraindications and side effects. After reading the instructions, it was scary to apply, but still decided. The result is not bad.

In general, about 80% of consumer reviews indicate the effectiveness of the drug, speed, low cost. Of the negative characteristics indicated a sharp smell, the property to dry the skin, the possibility of an allergic reaction in the form of rashes, redness on the skin.

Belosalik or Akriderm - which is better?

Acryderm is an ointment based on betamethasone, which is used to treat dermatological diseases. The preparation in the form of ointment and cream is produced by the Russian pharmaceutical company, its cost is 150-180 rubles. This is the cheapest analog of Belosalik.

Belosalik - a combined drug - acetylsalicylic acid enhances the effect of the steroid. Akriderm - contains only hormonal active substance, therefore it acts weaker. It is not released in the form of a spray, so it is impossible to use it in hard-to-reach places. Akriderm SK is a combined preparation, but at a cost practically does not differ from Belosalik.
