I've been prescribed Hydrocort Butyrate 0.1% Soln 20ml for my eczema, and I'm wondering if anyone else has used it for similar conditions. How effective was it for you, and did you experience any side effects? I'm particularly interested in hearing about any serious side effects like changes in eyesight or signs of a weak adrenal gland. Also, how long did it take for you to see improvements in your skin? Any tips on how to apply it would be appreciated as well.

I had a friend who got a rash and hives from this stuff. Don't ignore any severe reactions—get medical help right away.

I had to stop using it because I started to develop skin thinning, so be cautious if your skin is already sensitive. I'm going to ask my doctor if there are any alternatives.

I’ve been on it for a month now, and it has really helped with the itching and redness. No serious side effects so far, just a bit of tingling when I apply it. Make sure to follow the instructions carefully.

I wish my doctor had warned me more about the side effects, but it did work well for my eczema. My skin cleared up in about 2 weeks, but I’m still a bit worried about the long-term effects. Does anyone know if it's okay to use it for extended periods?

I didn't have any major issues, but I did notice some dry skin. Lots of moisturizer, like the other user said, and you should be fine.
