About Kroty-HC Cream
Kroty-HC Cream is a combination medicine used to provide relief from inflammation and itching associated with allergic or irritant contact dermatitis, mild to moderate eczema (itchy, cracked, swollen or rough skin), and insect bite reactions. Also, it is used in the treatment of scabies. Dermatitis is a common skin condition associated with dry, itchy, or swollen skin. Eczema is a skin condition that causes itchy, cracked, swollen, or rough skin.
Kroty-HC Cream contains Crotamiton and Hydrocortisone. Crotamiton is a scabicide and antipruritic agent which works by killing mites (tiny insects) and their eggs. Hydrocortisone is a steroid that works by acting inside skin cells and inhibiting the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling.

Do not apply Kroty-HC Cream on exudative wounds (fluid comes out of a wound), ulcerated areas, or broken or very inflamed skin.
