Medicinal Benefits

Fusidil B Cream is a combination of two medicines: Beclometasone and Fusidic acid. Beclometasone is a corticosteroid and has anti-inflammatory properties. It blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen, and itchy. Fusidic acid is an antibiotic and prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Together, Fusidil B Cream can effectively reduce symptoms of skin infections.
