PHARMACODYNAMICS : Fusidic Acid and its salts exert antibacterial
activity against most
Gram positive organisms; in particular, they are effective against
pathogenic Staphylococci,
including the penicillinase-producing strains. They have slight or no
activity against Gram
negative organisms and fungi. Betamethasone Dipropionate is a
topically active fluorinated
corticosteroid which has anti-inflammatory anti-pruritic and
vasoconstrictive actions.
PHARMACOKINETICS : Fusidic Acid and its salts are widely distributed
into tissues and body
fluids, including bone, pus, and synovial fluid; they penetrate
cerebral abscesses but do not enter
cerebrospinal fluid in appreciable amounts. They have been found in
foetal circulation and in
breast milk. About 95% or more of Fusidic Acid or Sodium Fusidate in
the circulation is bound to
plasma protein. Fusidic Acid or Sodium Fusidate is excreted in the
bile, almost entirely as
metabolites some of which have weak antimicrobial activity. About 2%
appears unchanged in the
faeces. Little is excreted in the urine or removed by haemodialysis.
Betamethasone Dipropionate has anti-inflammatory, anti-pruritic and
vasoconstrictive actions.
When administered topically, particularly under occlusive dressing or
when the skin is broken,
sufficient
corticosteroid
may
be
absorbed
to
give
systemic
effects.
Corticosteroids
are
extensively bound to plasma proteins. Only unbou
