a synthetic cortisol used for anti-inflammatory effects

What are the risks of long-term hydrocortisone use on the scalp? Dermatology reviews describe long-term topical corticosteroid use as causing skin thinning, delayed healing, greater infection risk, possible suppression of the body's own cortisol, and rebound flares on stopping — and over-the-counter hydrocortisone labels limit use to about a week without a doctor's direction.
Can hydrocortisone be used together with other treatments like minoxidil or steroid injections? Clinicians do use a mild steroid cream to settle the scalp irritation minoxidil can cause, but no verified trial tests hydrocortisone added to minoxidil or to corticosteroid injections, and prolonged scalp use risks skin thinning — combining it is a decision to take with a prescriber.
