Locoid is a topical medication containing hydrocortisone, a corticosteroid that helps reduce itching, redness, and swelling on the skin. It is effective in treating various skin conditions like eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis. Locoid is suitable for anyone experiencing skin inflammation and irritation due to these conditions. It works by suppressing the body's immune response that causes skin inflammation.
Apply a thin layer of Locoid to the affected area of the skin 2-3 times daily or as directed by your healthcare provider. Avoid using more than the prescribed amount to prevent potential side effects. If you experience any irritation or no improvement after using Locoid, consult your doctor. The effects of Locoid typically last for several hours after application.
