MED PRIDEHydrocortisone Cream 1% Maximum Strength Itch Relief, Bulk 16 Oz Hydro Cortisone Cream for Eczema, Dermatitis, Mosquito Bites

I bought this 1% hydrocortisone cream from MED PRIDE to treat mild skin irritation, and I was impressed with how well it worked. I noticed a big improvement within a few days. The texture is light, non-greasy, and absorbs quickly. I also liked that the tube is easy to use and offers a good amount of product for the price. It’s a great item to keep in your home first aid kit. I’ll definitely repurchase it.

The lid doesn't work. How that is possible with a 5" simple screw plastic top is hard to fathom... yet, it's true. With arthritis, it is painful to wrestle this large plastic lid. It requires pulling up AND unscrewing at the same time. Also no refunds allowed on this item. So I am stuck with it. Beware of this problem. Apparently the manufacturer cannot make a lid that fits properly. Product itself is quite good however, but I won't be able to take it on a trip because of the lid not working.

Works like magic. My symptoms instantly started to improve.

The smell is terrible. Could not use

great item at a reasonable price

Head patches of dry skin constantly itching.I kept lotion on it. Stop the edge button. We're not going try this cream. And within three days it was gone no more patch dry skin

Yes, if a hydrocortisone cream doesn't contain enough Kathon CG (a preservative), it could potentially smell bad due to bacterial or fungal growth, as Kathon CG helps prevent microbial contamination.Here's a more detailed explanation:Kathon CG's Role:Kathon CG is a broad-spectrum preservative that protects against microbial contamination, ensuring the safety and longevity of personal care products like hydrocortisone creams.Lack of Preservative:If a cream doesn't have sufficient Kathon CG, or any other preservative, the ingredients in the cream can become a breeding ground for bacteria and fungi.Consequences of Microbial Growth:These microorganisms can degrade the cream, leading to a change in texture, color, and, most importantly, a foul odor.Why it Matters:The presence of microorganisms in a cream can also make it unsafe for use, potentially causing skin infections or other problemsThere are so many reviews about how dangerous this product probably is based on its burnt rubber sulfur smell. Once again... no returns... no quality control. Pay for the real stuff.

I had no idea this product was so large. Needless to say that's awesome and I love it. I got bit by fire ants the other day and lathered myself up and it worked great. Definitely will buy again. If you are a family, buy this for the kids.
