How Hydrocortisone Works on Your Skin

Hydrocortisone belongs to a group of medicines called topical corticosteroids. When you apply the cream to your skin, it works by reducing inflammation and suppressing the immune response that causes redness, swelling, and itching.

The active ingredient penetrates the skin layers to target the underlying inflammatory processes. This action helps calm irritated skin and provides relief from the uncomfortable symptoms associated with bites, stings, and minor skin conditions.
