Hi I badly need to buy this: PREDNISOLONE Histacort 5mg/5g Cream (Topical Cream). I have visited about 4 pharmacies here in Al Alhsaa, Mubarraz but no luck. I will try in some other pharmacies in Al Othaim Mall later to check if they have this or something clinically similar to this cream. However, if you know a pharmacy that might sell this kind of drug around Al Ahsaa, Mubarraz area, please please lemme know.

Thank you

What he mean is If too much corticosteroid cream becomes absorbed through the skin, serious complications can result, including adrenal gland suppression and Cushing's syndrome. In adrenal gland suppression, the body stops manufacturing its own steroids, so the patient may become dependent on the drug. Cushing's syndrome causes symptoms including diabetes, high blood pressure, and muscle weakness. Local side effects are also possible due to misuse of corticosteroid cream. These can include skin atrophy, stretch marks, susceptibility to infection, allergy, easily bruised or injured skin, and enlarged blood vessels.Unless you are fully aware of your drug ,then apologies .But regarding where this is specifically sold,i have no idea.
