Description

Hydrocortisone 1% Cream 28 g is a topical corticosteroid used for the temporary relief of skin irritations, itching, and rashes. It contains 1% hydrocortisone as the active ingredient, a steroid that works by reducing inflammation, redness, and swelling in the affected area. The cream is applied directly to the skin and is designed to alleviate symptoms of various skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, and allergic reactions.

The product works by inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators, thereby reducing the inflammatory response at the site of application. This makes it effective for managing conditions that involve swelling, redness, or itching. Hydrocortisone 1% Cream is commonly used for localized treatment and is intended for short-term use to control symptoms and improve comfort.

Hydrocortisone 1% Cream should be applied in a thin layer to the affected area, typically up to two to three times a day, or as directed by a healthcare provider. It is important to follow the dosing instructions to avoid overuse or potential side effects such as skin thinning. The cream is for external use only and should not be applied to broken or infected skin.
