Hydrocortisone is a corticosteroid used for the treatment of inflammation, allergies, and autoimmune conditions. It works by suppressing the inflammatory and immune response, reducing symptoms associated with these conditions.

The medication can be administered as tablets, injections, or creams, as directed by a doctor, depending on the condition being treated. It is important for patients to follow the prescribed dosage and avoid long-term use without medical supervision.

Patients should be aware of potential side effects, such as weight gain, high blood pressure, or weakened immune system. It is important to inform the doctor of any unusual symptoms.

Common side effects include weight gain, high blood pressure, and weakened immune system. In rare cases, severe reactions such as adrenal insufficiency or osteoporosis may occur. Patients should be informed of these risks before starting treatment.
