Allergy and your perscribed creams

I've had the unfortunate need for allergy creams as I've gotten worse in my allergy and here's a low down of the creams I have to use, from mild to strong.

Dharcort Cream
The mildest of corticosteroids (type I). Content: hydrocortisone .
Sometimes causes acne.

Betasone Cream
Potent corticosteroids (type III). Content: betamethasone.
Sometimes causes viral skin lesions.

Elomet Cream
Potent corticosteroids (type III). Content: mometasone.
Sometimes causes tingling and skin atrophy.
