Less common but more serious side effects can include:
- Severe skin irritation or allergic reaction.
- Signs of skin thinning (e.g., easy bruising, shiny skin).
- Stretch marks or discoloration of the skin.
- Infections due to prolonged use, especially if the lotion is applied to large areas of the skin or under occlusive dressings.
Precautions:
Before using Lacticare-HC Lotion, consider the following precautions:
- Allergies: Ensure you are not allergic to hydrocortisone, lactic acid, or any other ingredients in the lotion. Perform a patch test if necessary.
- Medical Conditions: Inform your healthcare provider if you have any skin conditions, such as fungal or bacterial infections, before using the lotion.
- Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor before using Lacticare-HC Lotion if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
- Application Instructions: Use Lacticare-HC Lotion as directed by your healthcare provider. Apply a thin layer to the affected area, usually 2-4 times daily. Avoid excessive use, as it can lead to increased side effects.
- Avoid Sensitive Areas: Do not apply the lotion to broken or infected skin, and avoid contact with eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
- Long-term Use: Avoid prolonged use of corticosteroids on the face, underarms, or groin area unless directed by a doctor. Long-term use can lead to skin thinning and other side effects.
- Sun Exposure: Use sunscreen and protective clothing when outdoors, as hydrocortisone can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight.
