Locoid is a topical medication containing hydrocortisone, a corticosteroid that helps reduce itching, redness, and swelling on the skin. It is effective in treating various skin conditions like eczema, dermatitis, and psoriasis. Locoid is suitable for anyone experiencing skin inflammation and irritation due to these conditions. It works by suppressing the body's immune response that causes skin inflammation.
