Frequently asked questions about Fusidic Acid
Q. Is Fusone Cream an antifungal or a steroid? What is it used for?
Fusone Cream is neither an antifungal nor a steroid. It is an antibiotic which is effective against bacteria. It is used to treat bacterial infections of the skin like impetigo (a weeping, crusty and swollen patch of skin), infected cuts and grazes and infected dermatitis (skin becomes red, slightly swollen and painful due to infection).
Q. For how long is it required to use Fusone Cream?
Use the Fusone Cream for the time advised by your doctor. The treatment with Fusone Cream usually stretches for 1-2 weeks although it can be longer in some cases.
Q. What precautions should I take while applying Fusone Cream?
Fusone Cream is meant to be applied only on skin. Always wash your hands before applying it. Unless you are using the cream to treat your hands, always wash your hands after using Fusone Cream. Do not insert it into your body or swallow it. If it accidentally enters your eyes, wash your eyes thoroughly with water. If irritation persists, contact your doctor immediately.
Q. What is drug resistance? Does it mean that even Fusone Cream may turn ineffective?
Sometimes the bacteria get modified in your body and the medicine stops working. This is called drug resistance. Extended or recurrent use of a medicine may increase the risk of developing resistance to that medicine. Your body may develop resistance for Fusone Cream too. Therefore, to prevent drug resistance, you should use Fusone Cream in the right amount and for the duration recommended by the doctor.
Q. What should prompt me to stop using Fusone Cream?
If you develop a severe allergic reaction after using Fusone Cream, wash the area thoroughly and do not use the medicine again.

You should immediately seek medical support of your doctor or go to a nearby hospital.
