What is HC45 Hydrocortisone Cream?
HC45 Hydrocortisone Cream is a steroid cream used for inflammations of mild to moderate eczema, dermatitis and reactions to insect bites, nickel and plants. HC45 cream is used to reduce irritation, itching and redness. This cream can only be used for adults and children over the age of 10.
What is eczema and dermatitis?
Eczema is a dry skin condition which makes skin feel itchy, dry and irritated. Dermatitis is an inflammation triggered when the skin comes into contact with something irritable, like harsh additives and disinfectants.
How does HC45 Cream work to treat skin inflammation and redness?
HC45 cream includes 1% w/w hydrocortisone, which decreases the release of inflammatory substances within the bloodstream, thereby reducing swelling, itching and redness.
How to use HC45 Cream
Use sparingly on small skin areas, once or twice a day, for a maximum of 7 days.
If the condition does not improve, consult your doctor.
Important Information about HC45 Cream
HC45 cream contains a steroid cream and should only be used for short-term use (maximum one week). Thin layers of HC45 cream must be applied only to the affected area, as steroids thin the skin. HC45 cream cannot be applied to infected, oozing skin or open wounds. If the condition does not improve or worsens after using HC45 cream, treatment should be discontinued, and you should consult your doctor. HC45 cream must not be applied to the genital or facial regions.
