FUMACID CREAM
₹110.00
Fumacid cream is a topical antibiotic used to treat bacterial skin infections such as impetigo, folliculitis, and infected cuts or scrapes. Its active ingredient is fusidic acid, which works by stopping the growth of bacteria.
Key Information
- Active Ingredient: Fusidic acid (2%).
- Therapeutic Class: Antibiotic (specifically, a bacterial protein synthesis inhibitor).
- Mechanism of Action: Fusidic acid binds to a specific bacterial protein (elongation factor G) which is essential for the bacteria to create new proteins, thus halting bacterial growth and allowing the body’s immune system to clear the infection.
- Uses:
- Impetigo (a weeping, crusty, and swollen patch of skin).
- Infected dermatitis or eczema.
- Folliculitis (inflamed hair follicles).
- Infected cuts, scrapes, minor wounds, and boils.
Directions for Use
- Ensure the affected area of the skin is clean and dry before application.
- Apply a thin layer of the cream to the infected area.
- Gently massage it into the skin until absorbed.
- Wash your hands thoroughly before and after use, unless the hands are the area being treated.
- Follow your doctor’s advised duration of use; treatment typically lasts 7 to 14 days, and the full course should be completed to prevent resistance.
Important Considerations
- Side Effects: Common side effects are generally mild and local, including a burning sensation, itching, irritation, or redness at the application site.
- Warnings: Do not use the cream if you are allergic to fusidic acid. Avoid contact with the eyes. It is not effective against fungal or viral infections.
- Prescription: Fumacid cream is a prescription-only medication, and you should consult a doctor before use, especially if pregnant or breastfeeding.
