Aveeno 1% Hydrocortisone Anti, Itch Cream, Maximum Strength (Pack of 2)

The whole family uses this cream, it's even gentle enough for our babies skin. The pediatrician recommended hydrocortisone for his itchiness and it has helped tremendously.

Aveeno 1% Hydrocortisone Anti-Itch Cream is a reliable and effective option for temporary relief of itching and inflammation associated with mild skin irritations. Its added colloidal oatmeal makes it gentle on the skin while still offering the anti-inflammatory benefits of hydrocortisone. It's a good product to keep on hand for occasional flare-ups of eczema, rashes, or insect bites, but care should be taken with prolonged use.

This cream is gold for the itch after bee sting or bug bite. I got stung for first time in 5 years and nothing took the itch and irritation away but this. Pleasant smell, non greasy.

I recently broke out in a horrible rash all over my neck and face from a medication I was on, and this stuff did wonders in taking the redness down ! It was gentle enough on my neck and face but it got the job done and took that rash away in a day and a half !

I've used other creams specifically for eczema and nothing really works; they either do nothing or kind of help, but not entirely. This includes the Aveeno Eczema cream. I've gotten lotions and soaps from Lush, and although they stop the itch, they don't stop the flares. After some research on eczema, I found specifically the use of hydrocortisone to be the number one suggestion so I bought the Aveeno Hydrocortisone anti-itch cream. My eczema was so bad that any lotion gave me a tingling/burning sensation. Aveeno's cream also gave me that sensation but it was only for a couple of minutes. I used the cream right before I went to sleep and the next morning my skin was visibly clearer, it no longer itched, and it didn't burn when I applied the cream again. My skin was so bad that it started peeling because of how dry it was. Aveeno sped up the healing process. My skin is so healthy looking that my eczema is pretty much nonexistent. I no longer get any flare-ups unless I stop using the cream for more than a week. This cream is so good that I don't have to use it every day either. After my skin clears, I use it every other day. It's honestly so amazing and inexpensive.
