Fusidic acid works by preventing the growth of bacteria on the skin, which can help to reduce inflammation and prevent the spread of infection. It can also help to improve the appearance of the skin by reducing redness, itching, and other symptoms associated with bacterial infections.

Fusidic acid is typically recommended for people with bacterial skin infections, such as impetigo, folliculitis, and staphylococcal skin infections. It may also be used to prevent the spread of infection in people who are at a higher risk of developing these types of infections, such as those with eczema or other skin conditions.

Fusidic acid can be used on all skin types, but it is important to use it as directed by a healthcare professional or according to the instructions on the product label. It is also important to avoid using it on broken or irritated skin.

To use fusidic acid in your skincare routine, first cleanse the affected area of skin thoroughly. Then, apply a thin layer of the product to the affected area, making sure to avoid broken or irritated skin. Follow the instructions on the product label for the recommended frequency of use, and be sure to use the product for the entire length of time recommended by your healthcare professional or the product label. It is also important to avoid using other products containing fusidic acid or other antibiotics at the same time.
