Can using a 1% otc hydrocortisone cream everyday one time per day be dangerous?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really.: Chronic use of any tolical asteroids can thin skin and increase capilerization. This takes a while with non-fluorinated steroids, but is much more common with the fluorinated version. What rheumatology problem or dermatology problem are you treating? See your pcp or specialist to find out if is a better way!
