A member asked:
Is locoid (hydrocortisone butyrate) pommade a good choice for treating acne problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Topical steroids to treat acne are a bad idea. They may seem to work initially, but they will often create a dependency that makes it very difficult to come off of them. Also, sometimes it can cause "steroid acne" which can be very tough to treat. I would not recommend this.
