This formulation is a Cyanocobalamin 0.07%/Hydrocortisone 0.5% Topical Cream, a semisolid preparation dispensed in a pump mechanism for easy and controlled application on the skin. The cream is designed for localized treatment or absorption of active ingredients. Cyanocobalamin, a form of Vitamin B12, is used to treat vitamin B12 deficiency, while Hydrocortisone, a corticosteroid, is used to treat a variety of skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, allergies, and rash. The combination of these two active ingredients helps to nourish the skin while reducing inflammation and discomfort associated with these conditions.
This formulation combines Cyanocobalamin 0.07% and Hydrocortisone 0.5% in a topical cream, dispensed via a pump mechanism for easy and controlled application. Cyanocobalamin, also known as Vitamin B12, is essential for the normal functioning of the brain, nerves, and the production of red blood cells. It is often used in topical creams to help with skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis, as it aids in the regeneration of healthy skin cells. Hydrocortisone, on the other hand, is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, itching, and redness. It is commonly used to treat a variety of skin conditions such as allergic reactions, eczema, and psoriasis.
The combination of these two active ingredients in a single formulation provides a dual-action treatment approach. The Hydrocortisone works to quickly alleviate symptoms such as inflammation and itching, providing immediate relief to the patient. Meanwhile, the Cyanocobalamin promotes the growth of healthy skin cells to repair the damaged skin over time. This dual-action approach can lead to more effective and faster results compared to using each ingredient separately.
The cream is designed to be applied topically, directly to the affected area. This allows for localized treatment, targeting the specific area of the skin that needs attention. The pump mechanism ensures a controlled application, reducing the risk of applying too much or too little of the product. It also minimizes the risk of contamination as the product is not exposed to the environment or hands during application.
It's important to note that while this formulation can provide relief from symptoms, it does not cure the underlying condition. It should be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, under the guidance of a healthcare professional. As with any medication, it's crucial to follow the prescribed dosage and application instructions to ensure the best possible results. Side effects can occur, although they are generally mild and may include skin irritation or sensitivity at the application site. If these persist or worsen, or if you experience any other adverse reactions, contact your healthcare provider immediately.

The combination of Cyanocobalamin 0.07% and Hydrocortisone 0.5% in a topical cream formulation is designed to provide localized treatment for certain skin conditions. Cyanocobalamin, also known as Vitamin B12, is essential for the health of your skin and hair. It helps to reduce inflammation, dryness, and acne, and can also help to lighten skin. Hydrocortisone, on the other hand, is a corticosteroid that reduces redness, itching, and swelling.
While this formulation is generally safe for use, it's important to be aware of potential drug interactions. If you're using other topical medications on the same area of skin, it's important to discuss this with your healthcare provider or pharmacist. Using multiple topical treatments can sometimes lead to increased absorption of active ingredients, which could increase the risk of side effects. This is particularly true for other topical corticosteroids or medications that can cause skin dryness or irritation.
Systemic absorption of topical hydrocortisone can also occur, especially when it's used over large areas of skin or for prolonged periods. This could potentially interact with other medications you're taking. For example, it could increase the effects of medications that lower your immune response, such as cyclosporine or tacrolimus. It could also interact with certain medications for diabetes, as corticosteroids can increase blood sugar levels.
It's also worth noting that certain medical conditions can affect the use of this medication. For example, people with a history of skin infections or certain skin conditions, such as rosacea or perioral dermatitis, should use this medication with caution. Similarly, people with diabetes should monitor their blood sugar levels closely while using this medication.
As with any medication, it's important to use this formulation as directed by your healthcare provider. If you have any questions or concerns about potential drug interactions or how to use this medication, don't hesitate to reach out to us at Bayview Pharmacy. We're here to help ensure that your treatment is safe and effective.
The Cyanocobalamin 0.07%/Hydrocortisone 0.5% Topical Cream is a specially formulated medication that combines the therapeutic benefits of cyanocobalamin (Vitamin B12) and hydrocortisone. This semisolid preparation is dispensed in a pump mechanism, designed for convenient and controlled application on the skin for localized treatment or absorption of active ingredients.
Cyanocobalamin, or Vitamin B12, plays a crucial role in the normal functioning of the brain and nervous system, and for the formation of blood. It is involved in the metabolism of every cell of the human body, especially affecting DNA synthesis and regulation, but also fatty acid synthesis and energy production. When applied topically, it can help to regenerate, nourish, and moisturize the skin. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that can help to soothe irritated skin.
Hydrocortisone, on the other hand, is a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation, redness, and swelling. It is commonly used to treat a variety of skin conditions such as eczema, dermatitis, allergies, and rash. Hydrocortisone is absorbed through the skin and works by suppressing the immune response, thereby reducing inflammation, swelling, and redness.
When combined in a topical cream, these two active ingredients work together to treat a variety of skin conditions. The hydrocortisone reduces inflammation and soothes the skin, while the cyanocobalamin helps to nourish and regenerate the skin. This dual action can help to speed up the healing process and reduce symptoms such as redness, swelling, and itching.
It's important to note that while this cream can provide relief from symptoms, it is not a cure for the underlying condition. It should be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan, under the supervision of a healthcare provider. As with any medication, it's important to use this cream as directed by your healthcare provider, and to report any side effects or adverse reactions.

Beyond its recognized use for localized inflammation and potential Vitamin B12 deficiency, Cyanocobalamin 0.07%/Hydrocortisone 0.5% Topical Cream has also demonstrated effectiveness in addressing skin conditions associated with hyperpigmentation and dermatitis. With its medicated formulation, it helps to reduce skin discoloration, and soothes widely-present skin disorders such as eczema and psoriasis. For the former, the vitamin B12 aids in the normal growth, repair, and pigmentation of skin cells, making it practical for managing conditions like melasma or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. For dermatitis conditions, the Hydrocortisone component serves as an anti-inflammatory, alleviating itching, redness, and swelling of the skin, a common feature of eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis.
The Cyanocobalamin 0.07%/Hydrocortisone 0.5% Topical Cream may also be used for temporary relief of minor skin irritations, such as those caused by burns, insect bites or rashes due to jewelry, detergents, cosmetics, or poison ivy.
