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.
About Locoid

Apply a thin layer of Locoid to the affected area of the skin 2-3 times daily or as directed by your healthcare provider. Avoid using more than the prescribed amount to prevent potential side effects. If you experience any irritation or no improvement after using Locoid, consult your doctor. The effects of Locoid typically last for several hours after application.

An excellent service
An excellent service in these days when it is difficult to get a timely appointment with one's GP in the UK. After filling in the form and answering all the necessary questions to ensure the medication is indeed correct and appropriate, delivery is then very quick.

Absolutely love the simplicity of the questioning but after overriding several times I think that it would be better just to repeat the previous order rather than having to repeat the consultation. Having said that I have been accepted for the medication I wanted and I’m a very happy customer. But I do worry they might say no to me after filling out the consultation form. Because I don’t want to have to stop using the medication so that’s my only worry. Other than that I’m very grateful

Very good
I've twice been a customer of this company and been very satisfied. Be aware the consultation process is specific and probing. It may have been the product I needed but in my case the questions were extensive. This is reassuring in view of the growing hysteria surrounding the practice of buying medicines online, to say nothing of the activities of some fairly dubious forces trying to put a stop to it, though things do move quickly once you're request is approved, with despatch and delivery of a discreetly packaged item taking place within a couple of days more often than not. Frankly I'm glad they're there and with GPs proving ever more intractable because of arbitrary, unexplained and ever more draconian ’clinical guidelines’ I suspect others will be too. A satisfied customer happy to recommend the service.
