Yes, I have used hydrocortisone cream along with Cetaphil moisturizing cream, and water, in a 30/30/40 mix. The object of the water addition, was to thin the viscosity of the 50/50 mix enough to enable the application of the mix to the scalp through using a Sweet & Low liquid, bottle with a 3 & 1 Oil, red micro tube extension. This applier and mix eliminated a scalp dandruff condition in less than a month, with an initial treatment and repeal maybe, every third day, then stretch it slowly an additional day until you can see the scalps healthy pink skin color. The initial condition of the scalp was very WHITE and thick with discarded scalp cells and much dandruff. The function of the Hydrocortisone was to eliminate itching and the Cetaphil cream worked its wonder transforming the white scaly scalp into a vibrant pink scalp in less than a month. Possibly the action was reversed, but I find Cetaphil products to work wonders with skin, including scalp. The receiving party has gone over 6 months without ANY type of treatment, and her scalp is STILL in pristine condition. Age: 80+

Can you use hydrocortisone cream on your face?
It is NOT recommended to use hydrocortisone cream around the lips, mouth, or eyes because part of the medicine can be absorbed through the mucous membranes. Hydrocortisone is a steroid, which is a hormone. Used properly, it can have strong negative side effects; used improperly, those negative side effects can be far worse. As well, as a steroid, the medication can have effects on body function and organs. When steroidal medications are used as directed, the negative effects and effects on organs are more controlled than if the med is used improperly. For example, hydrocortisone cream is often prescribed to be applied directly to a limited area of skin, say, hives. But, the med could have serious side effects if lathered over large areas of skin. Hydrocortisone cream can also thin the skin where it is applied, and lead to other skin problems.
