Does it work and why Eurax Hc cream contains two active ingredients, hydrocortisone and crotamiton. Hydrocortisone which is used to reduce inflammation. Inflammation happens due to irritation of the skin, and is caused by the release of various substances that are important in the immune system. These substances cause blood vessels to widen, resulting in the irritated area becoming red, swollen, itchy and painful. C...more

Eurax Hydrocortisone cream: Eurax HC helps stop the itch and calms the skin (498 words)

Once again my eczema recently flared up on the palms of my hands. It hasn't done so for quite some time and I had been trying to control it with vaseline as it was just very dry. This worked for a while but then it became very itchy and annoying. So I new I had to do something. Eurax HC is something I have used previously and as it does tend to deal more with the itch than other creams I decided to buy a tube. It treats mild to moderate eczema irritant and allergic contact dermatitis (caused by substances such as bleaches, soaps and detergents, jewelery etc) and reactions to insect bites. Once you take the tube out of the box you will find a ...  Read the complete review

There are a seemingly limitless amount of products on the market that purport to treat or soothe irritated and inflamed skin - in my view, though, this is one of the few that really lives up to its promises.

I honestly do not know how I would cope with out this cream, it really has worked wonders for me. I suffer from eczema on my back and sometimes on my chest, and after years of trying all different lotions and creams, I finally went to my doctor to get something that would help combat the itching and the rash. She prescribed me with Hydrocortisone. It is a steroid based skin cream, which worried me at first, but the doctor reasured me it was not the type of steroids I was thinking of and this put my mind at rest. I felt and noticed a difference from the first use of this cream. My skin stopped itching, and didn't feel so dry and tight as soon as this ...  Read the complete review
