BETA FUSIDIC CREAM MALxxxxxxxxAZ DESCRIPTION: CREAM Colour : White Fragrance : Natural CONTENT: Fusidic Acid ........................................................................................... 2.0% w/w Betamethasone 17-Valerate equivalent to Betamethasone .................. 0.1% w/w Chlorocresol ........................................................................................... 0.1% w/w PHARMACODYNAMIC: Beta Fusidic Cream combines the well-known anti-inflammatory and antipruritic effects of betamethasone with the potent topical antibacterial action of Fusidic Acid. Betamethasone Valerate is a topical steroid rapidly effective in those inflammatory dermatoses which normally respond to this form of therapy. When applied topically, Fusidic Acid is effective against Staphyloccus aureus, Streptococci, Corynebacteria, Neisseria and certain Clostridia and Bacteroides. The antibacterial activity of Fusidic Acid is not diminished in the presence of betamethasone. PHARMACOKINETICS: There are no data which define the pharmacokinetics of Fusidic Acid, following topical administration in man. However, in vitro studies show that Fusidic Acid can penetrate intact human skin. The degree of penetration depends on factors such as the duration of exposure to Fusidic Acid and the condition of the skin. Fusidic Acid is excreted mainly in the bile with little excreted in the urine. Betamethasone is absorbed following topical administration. The degree of absorption is dependent on various factors including skin condition and site of application. Betamethasone is metabolised largely in the liver but also to a limited extent in the kidneys, and the inactive metabolites are excreted with the urine. INDICATIONS: Beta Fusidic Cream is indicated in inflammatory dermatoses where bacterial infection is present or likely to occur. Inflammatory dermatoses include atopic eczema, discoid eczema, stasis eczema, seborrhoeic, dermatitis, contact dermatitis, lichen simplex chronicus, psoriasis, discoid lupus erythematosus.
