Uses:
Bacterial skin infections, eczema and dermatitis.
Medicinal Benefits:
Fusibact-B Cream is used to treat bacterial skin infections, such as eczema and dermatitis. It consists of two medicines: Beclomethasone dipropionate (corticosteroid) and Fusidic acid (antibiotic). Beclomethasone dipropionate blocks prostaglandins production (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen, and itchy. It is used to treat inflammation and itchiness caused by eczema (inflamed and itchy skin) and psoriasis (skin cells build up and form scales and itchy, dry patches). On the other hand, Fusidic acid is an antibiotic and prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. It is used to treat infections like dermatitis (inflammation of the skin), spots, cuts, grazes, impetigo (weeping, crusty and swollen patch of skin), and folliculitis (inflammation of one or more hair follicles).

Fusibact-B Cream is not meant for the treatment of fungal or viral infections. Avoid its use in the treatment of fungal infections like ringworm or athlete's foot, and viral infections, such as herpes or chickenpox and acne or rosacea.
The usual treatment time with Fusibact-B Cream is two weeks. If you notice no improvement after seven days, stop using Fusibact-B Cream and consult your doctor.
Fusibact-B Cream is for topical (for skin) use only. Do not put bandage or dressing on the affected area while treating with Fusibact-B Cream unless the doctor advised. If the medicine gets into your eyes, nose, mouth or vagina, rinse with cold water. Do not apply Fusibact-B Cream on open wounds, lesions and blisters.
Applying Fusibact-B Cream can cause a change in the colour of skin at the application site after prolonged use. Veins beneath the skin may become visible due to the thinning and weakening of the skin. Prolonged usage of Fusibact-B Cream may also cause increased hair growth. Please stop using Fusibact-B Cream and immediately consult your doctor if you notice these side effects.
You are required to maintain at least a three-hour gap after application of Fusibact-B Cream if you are using more than one topical medicine.
