Ahh, good ol' Betnovate! That was my favourite of the various GvH ointments they gave me - it's gentler than the Elocon and way easier to use than the Epaderm (I only had skin GvH for a short while but it was on my arms, chest and scalps so I got a huge range of topical stuff because the body stuff doesn't work as well on the scalp!). I've got a different dermatologist, though - I ususally see Dr Rachel Morris-Jones.

I can't remember what any of my Ciclosporin levels were as I was only on it for 2 months post-transplant - I just remember my full dose was 125mg pills, and then we tapered down somewhat.
