Fucidin Cream 15g is an antibiotic cream, containing Fusidic Acid 2% w/w. It is primarily used for the treatment of bacterial skin infections like impetigo and infected dermatitis. This cream works by stopping the growth of bacteria, thereby helping to relieve infection symptoms.

Always use Fucidin Cream 15g exactly as directed by your doctor regarding the dose and duration. This medicine is for external use only. For best results, apply it regularly. Using more than prescribed will not speed up recovery and may increase the risk of side effects. Ensure the affected skin area is clean and dry before applying the cream. Always wash your hands thoroughly before and after using this medicine.

Common side effects that may occur immediately after application include a burning sensation, skin irritation, itching, or redness at the treated site. These reactions are usually mild and temporary. If these effects bother you or do not go away, please inform your doctor.

Avoid direct contact with your eyes. If Fucidin Cream 15g accidentally gets into your eyes, rinse them immediately with water and seek medical advice if irritation continues. Do not cover the treated area with airtight dressings (like bandages) unless specifically instructed by your doctor, as this might increase the chance of side effects. If you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding, discuss this with your doctor before using Fucidin Cream 15g.
