How Fusidic Acid Cream 15g Works
Fusidic acid is an antibiotic that works by stopping bacteria from producing essential proteins required for growth and replication. Without these proteins, bacteria cannot multiply or spread. This action prevents bacterial infections from worsening and allows the immune system to eliminate remaining bacteria from the infected skin area.
By reducing bacterial activity, Fucidin cream helps control symptoms such as redness, swelling, irritation, and pain associated with bacterial skin infections.
