Fusiwal Cream

Fusiwal Cream – Fusidic Acid 2% for Bacterial Skin Infections

Fusiwal Cream contains Fusidic Acid 2% w/w, a prescription topical antibiotic used to treat selected bacterial infections affecting the skin. Fusidic acid works by preventing susceptible bacteria from producing essential proteins required for their growth and survival. This helps stop the infection from spreading and allows the skin to recover. Fusiwal Cream should be applied only to the affected skin and used for the complete duration prescribed by a healthcare professional. Unnecessary or prolonged use of topical antibiotics may contribute to antibiotic resistance.
