saw Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 I have a problem with acne and contact dermatitis. I want to blend my own cream by mixing a Hydrocortisone cream and a Benzoyl Peroxide cream so that I can handle both at the same time. My question is, is there any chemical interaction between the two active ingredients that may weaken or nullify either or both? I don't want to waste my time (and $) if so. Thanks!

asaprocky Posted November 6, 2013 Share Posted November 6, 2013 you definitely shouldn't try and make your own cream... Eigen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantum Buckyball Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 You could use SciFinder to determine the potential chemical reaction under different conditions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

123hardasABC Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I know Vanoxide HC is both hydrocortisone and benzoyl peroxide so the combination does exist, but if I think it's also a prescription cream. So yeah...why don't we go speak with a dermatologist and not a graduate schools forum, yeah? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
