Hi I usually don't break out, but recently I have broken out all over my face. A friend told me to try Preperation H ointment.. So I bought it today at Walgreens. Will it be safe to use on my face?

No, Preparation H should not be used except for in the manner it is intended, which is to treat the pain, and itch associated with hemorrhoids.

Its effects are not permanent, so it is not going to help anyone shrink their waste in any significant, and permanent matter, and it does not help treat acne.

The regular formulation contains the active ingredient Hydrocortisone, which is a corticosteroid. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including a burning sensation, numbing, redness, and acne.

Thus, Sara, it could actually make your breakout even worse.

Ref: Preparation H information

Is there anything else I can help with?
