Fucidin  Ointment 2%

COMPOSITION :

Each gramme contains: Sodium fusidate 20 mg. in neutral

PROPERTIES :

FUCIDIN, an antibiotic derived from Fusidium coccineum, exerts powerful antibacterial activity against a number of gram- positive organisms. Staphylococci, including the strains resistant to penicillin or other antibiotics, are particularly susceptible to FUCIDIN. The therapeutic efficacy of topically applied FUCIDIN is due partly to the pronounced antibacterial activity of FUCIDIN against the organisms responsible for skin infections, and partly
to t e unique ability of this antibiotic to penetrate intact skin.

FUCIDIN ointment is indicated for treatment of skin infections
caused by staphylococci, streptococci, corynebacterium
minutissimum and other FUCIDIN-sensitive organisms; the
most important indications being :

Impetigo                             Boils                                       Hidradenitis
Infected wounds             Sycosis barbae                   Paronichia
Folliculitis                         Carbuncles                           Erythrasma
