Can I mail 1% non-prescription Hydrocortisone ointment to Germany?

The U.S. Postal service says you can’t ship medicines, but it’s not specific about the definition of medicines. This makes me think that anything – prescription or not – cannot be sent.

I have a friend who has found this to be the only effective thing for an issue she is having on one of her hands and one of her feet. She could get it from Amazon UK, but it’s expensive, as is the shipping. I could easily get it for her and ship it with her Christmas box, but don’t want either of us to get in trouble.

Can anyone help??
