Overview Fusilan 2% Cream

Topical antibiotic cream, Fusilan 2%, effectively combats bacterial skin infections like impetigo and infected eczema. Its mechanism involves inhibiting the proliferation of infectious bacteria, thus alleviating infection symptoms. Always adhere to your physician's prescribed dosage and treatment duration. For external use only, consistent application maximizes therapeutic efficacy. Avoid overuse; increased application won't accelerate healing and may heighten adverse effects. Ensure the affected area is clean and dry prior to application. Thorough handwashing before and after use is crucial. Mild, transient burning, irritation, itching, or redness may occur post-application, typically resolving spontaneously. Persistent or worsening symptoms warrant immediate medical consultation. Prevent eye contact; rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical advice if accidental exposure occurs. Unless advised by your doctor, avoid occlusive dressings, as these may exacerbate side effects. Disclose pregnancy, pregnancy planning, or breastfeeding to your doctor.
