WHERE TO BUY
FORMULA
HYDROCORTISONE 1%
Hydrocortisone is a steroid (corticosteroid) medicine that works to temporarily relieve itch and helps reduce inflammation. When skin is irritated a chemical reaction causes blood vessels to widen. After this, the skin can become red, swollen, and itchy. Topical hydrocortisone products like Cortizone-10® stop these reactions and temporarily reduce itching from minor skin irritations.
10 MOISTURIZERS
Work by attracting, retaining, and locking in moisture on the skin to replenish lost moisture and nourish the skin while hydrocortisone provides temporary itch relief that lasts for hours.
