A BetaBoot is a thin plastic material shaped like a sock/bootie to be worn overnight after applying Betamide Lotion or Cream. This process enhances the absorption and effectiveness of Betamide Lotion or Cream. Wearing the boot overnight keeps body heat in which helps with the absorption of the Lotion or Cream into the skin. It is also highly recommended that a cotton sock be worn over the boot to help avoid slips or falls.
