Overview

Fucidin H Cream contains Fusidic acid and is presented as a cream. It is supplied in pack sizes of 15g and 5g.

It is classified as a non-prescription medicine, so no prescription is needed to order it. Under Malaysian rules for medicine information, this page carries product, safety and handling information only.

You can consult a doctor or pharmacist online on DoctorOnCall about this product before or after you order. Every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is delivered. Always read the label and the leaflet supplied with the pack.

Directions for Use

Fucidin H Cream should only be applied as directed by the prescribing doctor or pharmacist, typically as a thin layer to the affected area two to three times a day. Hands should be washed before and after application unless the hands are the area being treated, and the cream should not be used on larger areas or for longer than instructed, since prolonged use of a steroid-antibiotic combination can lead to skin thinning or antibiotic resistance.

Dosage

The exact duration and frequency of use will be determined by the prescribing doctor based on the severity and location of the skin condition, and is usually limited to a short course of treatment, commonly up to one to two weeks, after which the condition should be reassessed rather than continuing the cream indefinitely.

Storage Instructions

Store below 25 degrees Celsius in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, keep the tube tightly closed when not in use, and keep out of reach of children.

  • Not for use on the eyes or on broken or severely infected open wounds unless specifically directed by a doctor

Drug / Food Interactions

Fucidin H Cream is intended for short-term, doctor-directed use only, and ongoing monitoring is important because long-term or unsupervised use of combination steroid-antibiotic creams can mask worsening infection, cause skin thinning, or contribute to antibiotic resistance; any skin condition that persists or worsens despite treatment should be reviewed by a doctor promptly.
