Anucort-HC (hydrocortisone) for Hemorrhoids "Experiencing my 1st hemorrhoid at 55, it is a level 3 that can be pushed back in but VERY painful. I tried all the over-the-counter medications available at my local stores before my doctor got my prescription Anucort called into the pharmacy. I got almost instant relief thankfully as the hemorrhoids are very uncomfortable. I have only had to take one suppository so far and I’m not experiencing any more pain at this time. I recommend this for instant relief; it has been a lifesaver."

Cortizone-10 (hydrocortisone) for Pruritus "I suffer from Pruritus, a side effect to oxycodone. Cortizone cream is very effective. Stops itching immediately, with no unpleasant odor and is instantly absorbed into the skin. Hope this helps."

For Anal Itching "I've found Hydrocortisone to be ABSOLUTELY useless for anal itching. Though not perfect, a topical antibiotic and anesthetic (Lidocaine, etc.) was much better."
