Axcel Hydrocortisone Cream 15g

Axcel Hydrocortisone Cream is a topical corticosteroid, and its active ingredient is hydrocortisone, a mild-potency steroid commonly found in first-aid skincare cabinets. When applied to the skin, some people may notice a mild burning or stinging sensation, thinning of the skin with prolonged use, or occasional redness at the application site. It's formulated for external use only, so it shouldn't come into contact with your eyes or broken skin unless your doctor says otherwise. You'll want to apply it thinly and avoid using it for longer than recommended, since steroid creams work best with short, controlled use. Axcel is a well-established Malaysian pharmaceutical brand trusted for accessible, quality-assured topical treatments.

A thin film is typically applied to the affected area 1 to 2 times daily, or as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. Continuous use beyond 7 days should only continue under medical supervision.

• Mild burning or stinging on application
• Skin dryness or peeling
• Thinning of the skin (with prolonged use)
• Redness or irritation at the site
• Folliculitis (inflammation of hair follicles)
• Changes in skin colour at the application site
• Allergic contact dermatitis (uncommon)
• Stretch marks with extended use on the same area

Store below 30°C in a cool, dry place, away from direct heat and sunlight. Keep the tube tightly closed after each use and out of children's reach.

• Apply only a thin layer — more cream does not mean faster results
• Avoid applying near the eyes or on broken skin
• Do not use occlusive dressings over the cream unless instructed
• Wash hands thoroughly after application to prevent accidental transfer
• Store the tube upright in a cool, dry cabinet away from sunlight
• Discontinue and consult a doctor if irritation worsens

Apply a thin layer to the affected area of clean, dry skin, gently rubbing it in until absorbed. Wash your hands before and after application unless the hands themselves are being treated.

This cream generally has a shelf life of about 2 to 3 years from the manufacturing date when unopened, and typically around 6 months once opened. Refer to the batch-specific expiry date printed on the packaging.

Hydrocortisone 1%.

Avoid using this cream on skin with active bacterial, viral, or fungal infections unless combined with appropriate treatment, as directed by a doctor. It should not be applied to broken skin, acne, or rosacea-affected areas without medical advice, and individuals with known hypersensitivity to hydrocortisone or any cream component should not use this product.

As a topical preparation, Axcel Hydrocortisone Cream has minimal systemic absorption and generally does not interact with oral medications or food. However, using it alongside other topical steroid products on the same area may increase the risk of skin thinning, so this should be avoided unless supervised by a healthcare professional.
