Hydrocortisone 1% Ointment - Aloe Vera, Anti-Itch - 1 oz

This hydrocortisone ointment is a nice option for things like bug bites that have been scratched open, or a rash that has already entered the weeping stage. I find that traditional hydrocortisone creams can often be a bit drying, and they sometimes sting during application to any bite or rash that is already opened up. This hydrocortisone ointment is the consistency of Vaseline, so it goes on easy and creates a nice protective layer. As far as effectiveness for itching, it seems to be the same as that of hydrocortisone cream. The only minor downside is that, like any ointment, it can stain things, so it helps to be aware of that. I like to keep this on hand in addition to the hydrocortisone cream from the same brand so I have both to use for different situations. Overall highly recommended.

I was very pleased with this product. I have been using cream formulations, and thought that an ointment might work better. Not many hydrocortisone ointments are available. I am glad that I found this one.

In the past I've had an issue with other brands because of an allergic reaction to the 'Other Ingredients'. This only has three ingredients: Hydrocortisone, White Petrolatum, and Mineral Oil. It worked great and cleared up my severe rash quickly. The price is nice too.

Did what it should

Good quality ointment which I prefer over cream,

This is the only thing I have tried that fixed my eczema! It worked almost immediately, and was fully gone within a few days! Great value and great product. I also like the consistency of the ointment better than the cream.

Works fine

good item
