My Thoughts
The Cortizone 10 Poison Ivy Relief Pads arrived at my house right on time. We have a lot of growth on the side of our house and unfortunately some poison ivy has snuck in there. My husband made the mistake of mowing the lawn in his sandals. A few hours later, his feet were covered in an itchy red rash. This isn't the first time its happened and we've always used Cortizone 10 to treat poison ivy, but the new applicator offers some conveniences the old squeeze tubes didn't.
The pads come in handy, one dose applicators. They are easy to open and allow you to dab the medicine right on the affected area without cross-contamination should someone else need to use the medicine. It also provides the benefit of a fresh, new package each time you use it. No worries that it will dry out or lose its potency.
As far as results, it was just as expected. Itching stops almost immediately after applying and in my experience, Cortizone 10 drastically reduces the normal healing time. I would never consider using another product, and now with these handy applicators, I can even carry a few around in case of emergencies. The new poison ivy relief pads are definitely a must have for anyone who has this nasty plant in the area.
