Fusidic acid is primarily an antibiotic ingredient used for the treatment of skin infections. It is mainly applied directly to the skin in the form of ointments or creams to inhibit bacterial infections. It is effective against Gram-positive bacteria and is utilized in the treatment of skin diseases.
Fusidic acid works by interfering with bacterial protein synthesis, preventing bacteria from multiplying. This reduces the bacteria at the infection site and alleviates inflammation. It acts directly on the skin, making it effective for local infection treatment.
Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.
Unlike other antibiotics, fusidic acid selectively inhibits specific stages of protein synthesis. As a result, the occurrence of resistance is relatively low, and it is specialized for the treatment of skin infections. Additionally, it is well absorbed by the skin, making it suitable for local treatment.
