Luxiq (generic: betamethasone) is a prescription medication used to treat inflammation, redness, swelling, itching, and tenderness associated with skin conditions of the scalp. This medication belongs to a group of drugs called topical corticosteroids which work by suppressing the over-active immune system.

Luxiq comes in the form of a foam to be gently massaged onto the scalp. It is usually applied twice daily, in the morning and at night. Wash your hands immediately after applying Luxiq.

Common side effects include mild burning, stinging, or itching at the site of application. These side effects typically disappear shortly after application.
