Uses of Fusiderm Cream 5 g

  • Skin infection

  • Boils

Benefits of Fusiderm Cream 5 g

In Skin infection
Fusiderm kills the bacteria infecting the skin, so the redness, swelling, pain and discharge settle and the skin heals.
In Infected wounds
Fusiderm clears infection from a cut, graze or wound so it can heal cleanly, and helps prevent infection in a wound at risk.
In Impetigo
Fusiderm clears the crusted, weeping sores of impetigo and stops them spreading to other areas or to other people.
In Boils
Fusiderm treats the bacterial infection in a boil or folliculitis, reducing the pain and swelling and helping it heal.

How Fusiderm Cream 5 g works

Fusidic Acid kills the bacteria infecting the skin at the place it is applied.

How to take Fusiderm Cream 5 g

Clean and dry the affected area, then apply a thin layer and rub it in gently. Wash your hands before and after use, unless your hands are the area being treated. This is for use on the skin only — do not swallow it. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one — applying extra does not make up for it.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine is unlikely from skin use. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Fusiderm Cream 5 g

Most side effects of Fusiderm are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Burning or stinging
  • Itching
  • Redness
  • Dryness

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
