About Hydrocortisone

Hydrocortisone is the mildest topical corticosteroid available in Nigeria and one of the most commonly used medications for treating inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema, contact dermatitis, insect bites, and heat rash. Hydrocortisone is a synthetic form of cortisol, a hormone naturally produced by the adrenal glands in the body. When applied to the skin as a cream or ointment, it works by reducing inflammation, redness, itching, and swelling. It does this by suppressing the release of inflammatory chemicals in the skin, calming the immune response that causes the uncomfortable symptoms. Because hydrocortisone is classified as a mild (Group VII) topical corticosteroid, it is considered safe enough for over-the-counter sale in Nigeria for short-term use, and it is widely available in pharmacies from Ikeja in Lagos to Wuse in Abuja and Sabon Gari in Kano.
