User Reviews for hydrocortisone topical

great cream but when i stop using it my skin on my face is very bad

I have EXTREMELY sensitive skin, mainly speaking of my facial skin. Had chronic dermatatis as a child but face was always very clear (not even acne issues really) until I hit about 19-20. Used various things but then developed rosacea :( So I have multiple issues to deal with and by mix up I had been using Desonide-topcial medium grade steriod on my face twice a day as daily moistuizer along with my rosacea RX-OOPS! Noticed increase of facial hair and thought it had to be the steriod cream (it was) so I tried what seemed to be a million other products and finally settled with an over the counter hydrocortizone cream(not nearly as strong as the desonide)for the past year. It has worked wonders for me and delivers all the things I need in regard to moisture in my rosacea areas, and no itching,etc... However...the facial hair growth still exists :( :( Feel hopeless at this point. Now dermatologist is prescribing Elidel-FDA warning of possible cancer causing product. Long term- NO for women Short Term-Absolutely! :) Best of luck to you all!Read More Read Less

Overall it has certainly relieved the problem and at least enables me to get a good nights rest.

worked to fix the itching but i am now having extensive hair loss. only used it for about 1 month and a half.

Perscribed to treat a rash that turned out to be psoriasis. 24 hrs, area turned tomato red. 48 hrs whole limb was red. The PA didn't know up to 10% of people may be alergic to perscription grade. But it did treat the problem.

IT DID WORK FOR ME FOR A WHILE BUT MY SYMPTOMS CAME BACK AFTER A MONTH

when i was using this cream i thought it was great it always seem to clear op my eczema on my face and hand, but now after using this cream for years iv dicovered its the cause of the brown rings and wrinkly condition of my eyes. so im dumping all my creams and goin to kick my doctors ass.

Used in conjuction with Mupirocin Top ointment for a troublesome scalp problem I thought was originally a spider bite on the top of my head. The rash and infection spread quickly and was prevalent on 50% of my scalp. Thanks to the VA Hospital and this medication, within two weeks the infection and scalp problem was eliminated.

Does,nt seem to be working that fast and both my arms are devolping stretch marks

the drug has not been effective with my condition of eczema.

I was using this medication at 1% as prescribed from my Doctor.About an allergic rash I had on my stomach,back and side.It cleared up in no time and works great on the ecezema I have on my hands too.

I get this skin irritation after showering or shaving.After using this product,at first,it seemed to work but it never went away.

Used to treat a poison ivy rash, but it caused an itchy rash of its own.

I know that this product works for many, and it could just be coincodence, but after starting a 1% hydrocortisone anti-itch cream, my rash grew and got more painfull. I would use with care.

I recieved a really bad sunburn, and my back started a painful itch that nothing would ease, I went to wal mart and bought the aveeno hydrocortisone cream and it worked.
