About Locoid

Drug Details

Hydrocortisone butyrate is a medium-strength topical corticosteroid used to manage various skin conditions, including eczema, dermatitis, allergies, rashes, and severe dandruff (seborrheic dermatitis). It works by reducing inflammation, itching, and redness associated with these conditions. Available in formulations such as creams, ointments, lotions, and solutions, hydrocortisone is effective in treating skin inflammation, rashes, psoriasis, insect bites, poison ivy or oak, skin allergies, dry scalp, and genital or rectal irritation. While generally safe with few side effects when used as directed, rare cases of topical steroid withdrawal may occur. Always consult a healthcare professional before starting or stopping any medication.
