Introduction

Dermicort Cream is a topical steroid used to treat mild to moderate inflammatory skin disorders like eczema. It works by preventing the release of substances that cause inflammation, thereby providing relief from swelling, redness, and itching in the affected area. While it is effective in managing symptoms, it is important to use it as directed by a healthcare professional to avoid potential side effects. Consult your doctor if your condition does not improve after two weeks of treatment.

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the cream. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.

Dermicort Cream is a steroid medicine that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy.

Dermicort Cream is used to treat the redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort of eczema. It should be applied to the affected areas as a thin film two or three times daily or as advised by your doctor. Don't use it more often or for longer than advised by your doctor. Don't cover the area being treated with airtight dressings such as bandages unless directed by a doctor, as this may increase the risk of side effects. If you think the area of skin you are treating has become infected, you should stop using Dermicort Cream and consult your doctor. Consult your doctor if your skin condition has not improved after 2 weeks of treatment.
