"Received the prescription, removed the cap on the tube, reversed the same, and screwed it back on to pierce the tin foil. But the cream will not eject yet looks open. Reached the costs from $1.29 to $4.00 depending on where purchased. I therefore cannot provide benefits."

"Cortopin, for me, is the best. I don’t know, but it seems to be more fast-acting. Would definitely prefer this to any others, but very hard to get or find."

"Have periodic dry skin on my hands, which leads to severe cracking. Understand if your issue is bacterial or fungal. Tried many fungal creams, then bacterial cortisol. Works great, I use it almost every day. Hands are in great shape (almost too soft, lol)."
