FUCIDIN
®
PLAIN TOPICAL ANTIBIOTIC
CREAM
Fusidic acid 20 mg/g in neutral cream base.
PROPERTIES
Fusidic acid is an antibiotic with powerful antibacterial activity
against a number 
of gram-positive organisms. Staphylococci, including the strains
resistant to 
penicillin or to other antibiotics, are particularly susceptible to
fusidic acid.
Besides pronounced antibacterial activity against the majority of
organisms
responsible for skin infections, Fucidin
®
cream also possesses unique ability for 
penetration to the focus of infection, even when applied to intact
skin.
INDICATIONS
Fucidin
®
cream is indicated for treatment of skin infections caused by 
staphylococci, streptococci, Propionibacterium acnes,
Corynebacterium 
minutissimum, and other organisms sensitive to fusidic acid. The most
important 
indications being:
Impetigo
Boils
Carbuncles
Paronychia
Infected wounds
Sycosis barbae
Hidradenitis
Erythrasma
Folliculitis
Fucidin
®
cream is an invisible, non-staining preparation, which is 
cosmetically acceptable for treatment of face and scalp infections.
APPLICATION
Fucidin
®
cream is applied to the affected area 2–3 times daily, generally for
a period
of 7 days, except in treatment of acne where therapy should be
extended for a 
longer period according to the nature of this disease.

SPECIAL WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Bacterial resistance among Staphylococcus aureus has been reported to
occur with the use of
topical Fucidin®. As with all antibiotics, extended or recurrent use
of fusidic acid may increase
the risk of developing antibiotic resistance.
Fucidin® cream contains butyl hydroxyanisole, cetyl alcohol and
potassium sorbate. These
excipients may cause local skin reactions (e.g. contact dermatitis).
Butyl hydroxyanisole may
also cause irritation to the eyes and mucous membranes. Fucidin®
cream should therefore be
used with care when applied in the proximity of the eyes.
