Westcort Ointment is used to treat a variety of skin conditions, such as eczema, dermatitis, allergies, and rash. It is specifically indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses in adult patients. 

The ointment contains hydrocortisone valerate, a medium-strength corticosteroid that reduces the swelling, itching, and redness associated with these types of skin conditions. This mechanism is pivotal in addressing the symptoms and manifestations of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses.

Do’s

  • Apply Westcort Ointment only to the affected skin areas as directed by your healthcare provider.
  • Wash and thoroughly dry the affected area before applying the ointment.
  • Thin film: Apply a thin layer of the ointment and gently rub it in.
  • Apply the medication 2-3 times daily or as directed by your healthcare provider.
  • Wash your hands before and after applying the ointment, unless treating your hands.
  • Be careful not to get the ointment in your eyes. Rinse thoroughly with water if contact occurs.
  • Continue using Westcort Ointment for the full prescribed duration, even if symptoms improve. Stopping too early may allow the condition to return.
  • Tell your healthcare provider if your condition worsens or doesn't improve after 2 weeks of using Westcort Ointment.
