What is Enstilar Foam used for?

Enstilar Foam, with the generic name calcipotriene and betamethasone dipropionate, is being used as a topical treatment for plaque psoriasis. It helps lessen symptoms like redness, scaling, and thickening of the skin. This is classified as a combination of a vitamin D analog and a corticosteroid.

This is available in Enstilar Foam 50 mcg/0.5 mg foam in a 60-gram bottle.

How does Enstilar Foam work?

This prescription foam has a dual action. Vitamin D analogs bind with the vitamins’ receptors and slow down rapid cell production and build-up that triggers symptoms on the skin like itchiness and scaling. Then, corticosteroids prevent skin cells from producing inflammation-causing chemicals that can also contribute to the symptoms.

How to use Enstilar Foam

Before you begin to use this prescription foam, you must read the medication guide that it comes with. It is important to know all the necessary information and how to use the medication properly prior to using it for the first time.

This foam is usually applied to the skin once daily. It should be administered using a thin layer on the affected area. Then, rub the foam gently to facilitate absorption. Wash your hands once after application to avoid accidentally applying the medication to the eyes or mouth. You should also avoid applying the medication to the face, groin area, and underarms. Do not use this prescription product for more than four weeks.
