Fusimed-H Cream 15g

Used for:

• Bacterial Skin Infections with Inflammation: Fusimed-H Cream is primarily used to treat bacterial skin infections where inflammation is present or suspected. These infections may include:
  • Impetigo
  • Infected wounds
  • Infected eczema
  • Folliculitis (infected hair follicles)
• Combination Therapy: By combining an antibiotic with a corticosteroid, Fusimed-H Cream can effectively treat both the bacterial infection and the accompanying inflammation.

Side Effects:

• Skin Reactions: Some individuals may experience mild skin irritation, burning, itching, or redness at the site of application.
• Skin Thinning: Prolonged use of corticosteroids like hydrocortisone can lead to skin thinning, especially if applied to sensitive areas or under occlusive dressings.
• Fungal Infections: Prolonged or excessive use of corticosteroids may lead to the development of fungal infections due to the suppression of the skin's immune response.
• Fusidic Acid Resistance: Long-term or excessive use of fusidic acid may lead to the development of resistant bacterial strains.

Precautions:

• Avoiding Contact with Eyes: Fusimed-H Cream should not be applied to the eyes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Use during pregnancy and breastfeeding should be discussed with a healthcare professional, as systemic absorption of the medication may occur.
• Underlying Conditions: Inform your doctor about any underlying medical conditions, especially related to the skin or immune system, before using Fusimed-H Cream.
• Use on Face and Groin: Avoid using Fusimed-H Cream on the face, groin, or other sensitive areas for prolonged periods, as these areas are more prone to side effects.
• Use in Children: Use in children should be under the supervision of a healthcare provider, as they may be more susceptible to systemic absorption and potential side effects.

It's essential to use Fusimed-H Cream exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider and to complete the full course of treatment, even if symptoms improve before the medication is finished. If you experience any adverse reactions or have concerns about its use, consult your healthcare provider promptly
