The pattern of response follows this sequence: erythema, vesiculation, erosion, ulceration, necrosis and epithelialisation. Formerly Efudix.
Fucidin contains fusidic acid, a potent antibacterial agent. Fusidic acid and its salts show fat and water solubility and strong surface activity, and exhibit an unusual ability to penetrate intact skin. Concentrations of 0.03–0.12mcg fusidic acid per ml inhibit nearly all strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Topical application is also effective against streptococci, corynebacteria, niesseria and certain clostridia
Combines an antiseptic action of phenol and chlorhexidine digluconate to help prevent infections, plus a soothing local anaesthetic effect of phenol to numb the pain.
A gentle but effective treatment for minor abrasions, wounds, scrapes, burns, bites and stings. The cream contains chlorhexidine dihydrochloride, a mild antiseptic that aids in infection prevention. The cream base softens the skin while also soothing inflammation.
