Description
Hydrocortisone 2.5% Cream is a topical corticosteroid formulated to reduce inflammation, redness, and itching associated with various skin conditions. It is commonly prescribed for eczema, dermatitis, insect bites, poison ivy, and other mild to moderate inflammatory skin disorders. The active ingredient, hydrocortisone, functions by inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators, thereby alleviating symptoms such as swelling, itching, and irritation.
This medication is intended for external use only and should be applied as directed by a healthcare professional. A thin layer is typically applied to the affected area one to four times daily, depending on the severity of the condition. Prolonged use over large surface areas or under occlusive dressings should be avoided unless specifically recommended, as systemic absorption may occur.
Precautionary measures should be taken in patients with preexisting skin infections, as corticosteroids can suppress immune response and worsen underlying conditions. Possible side effects include burning, stinging, dryness, or irritation at the application site. Long-term use may result in skin thinning, discoloration, or secondary infections.
