I have read that steroids react with carbimazole, does anyone know if I’m able to use a steroid cream called fucibet whilst on them please?

I’m quite certain fucibet cream can be used with carbimazole. 

I did look on drug interaction site but the cream wasn’t listed only drug medicines.  

Reading both patient information leaflets neither refer to interactions. 

The cream (topical) form is different to tablet / liquid versions.  Which have been prescribed in severe cases of hyperthyroid not responding to antithyroid.
