View package leaflet

Soventol Hydrocortisone Acetate 0.5% Cream is a medicinal product containing a low concentration of a mildly potent corticosteroid, which is used for the short-term (lasting no longer than 2 weeks) external treatment of moderate inflammatory and allergic skin conditions.

The active ingredient in the cream is the mildly potent corticosteroid hydrocortisone acetate. It has a mild anti-inflammatory effect.

In acetate form, hydrocortisone is released very effectively from the cream-gel formulation and penetrates the skin particularly quickly, where it exerts its anti-inflammatory effect locally. This means that the wide range of beneficial effects of hydrocortisone (anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, anti-itching) can take effect particularly quickly. The unique Cremogel formulation also has both cooling and moisturising effects: Soventol cream therefore cools like a gel and moisturises like a cream.

Soventol Hydrocortisone Acetate is used:

  • for the treatment of moderately reddened, inflamed or allergic skin conditions in adults and children over 6 years of age, for whom weak-acting corticosteroids in low concentrations are indicated.

Contact allergies

  • The skin reacts to direct contact with an allergen (e.g. costume jewellery, detergents, cosmetics, textiles).
  • After about 2 days, a severely itchy rash develops, accompanied by redness of the skin, nodules and blisters.
  • Often, those affected are unable to identify the trigger due to the delayed onset of symptoms.

Painful sunburn

  • Excessive exposure to UV radiation overwhelms the skin’s natural repair mechanisms. Skin cells die off.
  • The small blood vessels dilate, resulting in the typical redness of the skin.
  • Further typical symptoms – caused by local inflammation – appear around 6 hours later: swelling, pain and a sensation of heat.

Acute skin inflammation

  • The main symptoms of most acute, eczematous skin inflammations are itching and redness of the skin.
  • These are often accompanied by the formation of papules or vesicles, oozing of the skin and oedema.
  • Prompt treatment to relieve itching and reduce inflammation helps to prevent secondary infections and the condition becoming chronic.

Atopic dermatitis

  • A chronic inflammatory skin condition characterised by severe itching (medical term: atopic dermatitis).
  • The skin’s protective function is impaired: contact with germs or physical, chemical or emotional stimuli can lead to inflammation.
  • The skin is often dry, scaly, reddened and itchy. In the acute stage, nodules and pustules form.

Directions for use
  • Adults and children over 6 years of age: Apply a thin layer of Soventol Hydrocortisone Acetate to the affected areas of skin up to 3 times a day. Immediately after applying the cream, a slight burning sensation may occur, but this usually subsides quickly. Once the condition has improved, once-daily application is often sufficient.
  • Method of application: Soventol Hydrocortisone Acetate is applied to the skin in a thin layer and gently rubbed in. The tube is sealed with a thin aluminium foil. Before first use, pierce the seal using the spike on the top of the tube cap.
  • Duration of treatment: The duration of treatment depends on how well you respond to it. However, Soventol Hydrocortisone Acetate must not be used for longer than 2 weeks without consulting your doctor, and the duration of treatment in children should be kept to a minimum. Please speak to your doctor or pharmacist if you feel that the effect of Soventol Hydrocortisone Acetate is too strong or too weak.
