I believe what you have is the ointment. Check it. If it looks like

vaseline/grease, it will be a major pain to use.

What you want looks like cream, white, and it will rub right in and

absorb, vs the ointment whch will just smear around like straight vaseline.

I stand corrected then. Is there a brand name on it?

Also I've never seen " hydrocortisone acetate " , all of the creams I've

used of whatever brand say

" hydrocortisone " I googled a little but didn't find out what the

difference is.

Hydrocortisone acetate is a VERY fast acting for of cortiosl. I doubt it

would hold anyone through dosing. It only is in the system abotu 30-45

minutes.
