Crotorax HC Cream
Crotorax HC is a high-performance, dual-action topical medication designed to provide comprehensive relief from inflammatory and itchy skin conditions. It combines two powerful therapeutic agents: Crotamiton and Hydrocortisone. While Crotamiton acts as a potent anti-pruritic (anti-itch) and mild scabicide, Hydrocortisone is a mild corticosteroid that addresses the underlying redness, swelling, and irritation. This synergistic blend is particularly effective for managing eczema, dermatitis, insect bites, and various allergic skin rashes where intense itching is the primary symptom. By calming both the sensation of the itch and the physiological inflammatory response, Crotorax HC helps break the “itch-scratch” cycle and promotes faster skin healing.

Precautions
- This cream is intended for short-term symptomatic relief. Do not use for more than 7 consecutive days unless directed by a doctor.
- Do not apply on or near the eyes, mouth, or internal mucous membranes.
- Do not use on skin that is already infected (fungal, viral, or bacterial) or on open, weeping wounds.
- Avoid prolonged use on the face, as corticosteroids can lead to skin thinning (atrophy) in sensitive areas.
- Consult a healthcare provider before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- If you experience increased irritation, a burning sensation, or a rash after application, discontinue use immediately.
How to Use
- Clean the affected skin area with a mild cleanser and pat it completely dry.
- Apply a small amount of Crotorax HC Cream to the fingertip. A thin film is sufficient for coverage.
- Gently massage the cream into the affected area until it is fully absorbed.
- Wash your hands thoroughly after application, unless the hands are the area being treated.
- Typically applied 2 to 3 times daily, or as specifically instructed by your dermatologist.
- Store in a cool, dry place (below 25°C). Keep the tube tightly closed to maintain its therapeutic integrity.
