Fortison Cream 10gm

Fortison Cream is a dermatological medication used to reduce swelling, itching, and redness caused by eczema and dermatitis with secondary bacterial skin infections. Eczema is a skin condition where the immune system becomes disordered, causing inflammation, dry skin, itching, and rashes that can appear purple, grey, or red.

Composition:

• Fusidic Acid: An antibiotic that inhibits essential proteins necessary for bacterial growth and multiplication, stopping bacteria from growing and allowing the immune system to clear the infection.
• Hydrocortisone: A corticosteroid that inhibits the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling, thereby reducing inflammation.

• Use as prescribed by your doctor.
• For external use only.
• Avoid contact with the nose, ears, mouth, or eyes. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Apply as advised by your doctor, based on your medical condition.
• Do not cover or wrap the treated area with bandages unless advised by your doctor.
• Apply with caution near the eyes as it may cause glaucoma if it gets into the eye.
• Inform your doctor if you are allergic to FFusidic acid + Hydrocortisone or any other medications.
• Notify your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
• Consult a doctor if you experience blurred vision or other vision disturbances.
• Avoid smoking or going near naked flames as the fabric in contact with Fusidic acid + Hydrocortisone is highly flammable and can pose a fire hazard.
• Inform your doctor if you have any of the following conditions: rosacea, acne, perioral dermatitis, tuberculosis, diabetes, syphilis, chickenpox, sores, athlete’s foot, broken veins, or skin ulcers.
• If used for prolonged periods, it may cause systemic effects due to corticosteroid absorption.
• Apply with caution to prevent accidental ingestion or application to unintended areas.
