Halotoz-F Cream 15 gm is a dermatological medication primarily used to treat bacterial skin infections, such as eczema, dermatitis, folliculitis (inflammation of the follicles) and impetigo (red sores on the face). A bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria enter the body through the skin and cause infection. Atopic dermatitis is a skin condition in which the immune system becomes triggered, thereby causing inflammation, dry skin, itching, a skin rash that appears purple or grey or red in colour.
Halotoz-F Cream 15 gm is composed of two medicines: Halobetasol propionate and Fusidic acid. Halobetasol propionate belongs to the class of corticosteroids. It blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy. On the other hand, Fusidic acid is an antibiotic that prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Together, Halotoz-F Cream 15 gm helps treat skin infections.
Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your infection. In some cases, Halotoz-F Cream 15 gm may cause common side effects like itching, dryness, redness and a burning sensation at the application site. These side effects usually do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if you face any other symptoms or if the side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.
Let your doctor know if you have/had any allergic reactions to Halobetasol propionate, Fusidic acid or other medications. Do not cover or wrap the treated area with bandages unless advised by your doctor. Do not use Halotoz-F Cream 15 gm on sensitive areas like nostrils, ears, lips or genitals if the doctor did not advise you. In case Halotoz-F Cream 15 gm comes in contact with eyes accidentally, rinse with water thoroughly. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult the doctor before starting Halotoz-F Cream 15 gm.
Halotoz-F Cream 15 gm is used to treat bacterial skin infections, such as eczema and dermatitis. It consists of two medicines: Halobetasol propionate (corticosteroid) and Fusidic acid (antibiotic). Halobetasol propionate blocks prostaglandin's 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), psoriasis (skin cells build up and form scales and itchy, dry patches), allergies and rash. On the other hand, Fusidic acid 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).
