Same but cheaper through CVS

The human brand cortisone 10 is just as good and cheaper. Recommend putting a sock over their foot so they can't lick it off or get sick.

Dog safe, does the job

Bought this for a hotspot on my Husky that he got from being shaved for surgery. It seems to help relieve the itch and keep him from going at it for a bit. My vet

Bought this for a hotspot on my Husky that he got from being shaved for surgery. It seems to help relieve the itch and keep him from going at it for a bit. My vet specifically recommended this because it is not oil based and so far it has not made anything worse (only better) so that is a win!

Confused...

I don't understand why the back of the packaging shows information for a product in regards to a person, and not an animal. Is this even safe to use on my cat? I

Rx Required

It is ridiculous that Chewy requires an Rx for this $2.65 item but will sell you the $14 1% hydrocortisone cream without an Rx.
