Fucicort Cream is used to treat skin conditions characterized by inflammation and infection. It can relieve the symptoms of inflamed conditions, such as dermatitis and eczema, when a superimposed infection is suspected. It is also used to treat bacterial skin infections. Some common indications of Fucicort cream include:
  • Atopic eczema
  • Discoid eczema
  • Contact dermatitis
  • Discoid lupus erythematosus
  • Seborrheic dermatitis
  • Psoriasis
  • Lichen simplex chronicus
Fucicort cream can help relieve the symptoms of these conditions, such as redness, itching, and pain. It can also clear the infection, reducing swelling and pus formation in the affected parts of the skin. Fusidic acid is indicated for treating secondary skin infections caused by a wide range of bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus and Corynebacterium minutissimum. It works by inhibiting the production of some proteins. This stops the multiplication of bacteria, allowing the infection to clear. Betamethasone valerate blocks the production of chemical compounds that cause inflammation in the skin. This helps to reduce swelling and narrows the arteries that have become wider due to inflammation or infection. This mechanism helps relieve the symptoms of skin conditions that do not respond well to weaker steroids. Fucicort cream dissolves in fat and water. This solubility makes it an effective and powerful topical antibiotic for managing skin infections, as it allows easy penetration into the deeper layer of the skin.

Is Fucicort a strong steroid?

Fucicort cream contains Betamethasone valerate, which is a potent topical corticosteroid. It is a strong steroid that is highly effective in managing inflammatory skin conditions, which usually do not respond to other biker corticosteroids.   

Is Fucicort antiseptic?

Yes, Fucicort cream is antiseptic. It contains fusidic acid, which acts as an antibacterial agent and helps clear the signs of infection. Fucicort cream also contains betamethasone valerate, which produces anti-inflammatory and antipruritic effects. These properties support the antiseptic and antibacterial action of fusidic acid and relieve pain, swelling, itching, and redness of the skin associated with bacterial infections.

Fucicort cream is generally safe to use and not known to cause severe side effects.
Some patients may develop adverse effects such as:

  • An allergic reaction to fusidic acid or betamethasone valerate, resulting in difficulty breathing, redness, swelling, and itching at the site of application
  • Dilation of the superficial blood vessels of the skin
  • Stretch marks
  • Thinning of the skin
  • Cloudy or foggy vision

Not all side effects are listed here. If these or other unlisted symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare provider or pharmacist.

How to use Fucicort Cream?

Fucicort cream is a topical medication, which means it should only be applied locally on the affected parts of the skin. Do not swallow it or put it inside your body.

When you use this medication for the first time, remove the cap of the tube and check the seal to ensure it is not broken. Then, gently push the spike on the cap’s top through the tube’s seal.

Take a small quantity of Fucicort cream on your fingers and apply it on the affected parts of the skin forming a thin layer. Rub the cream gently onto the skin to facilitate better absorption.

Always wash your hands before and after each use.

You can use Fucicort cream 2 to 3 times a day, depending on the severity of your symptoms, or as your doctor recommends.

Who should not use Fucicort cream?

You shouldn’t use Fucicort cream if you:

  • Have a history of allergy to fusidic acid or betamethasone valerate
  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding, unless prescribed by your doctor
  • Have any of the following conditions:

o   Viral or fungal skin infection

o   Acne rosacea

o   Tuberculosis

o   Perioral dermatitis

o   Damaged skin

o   Ulcerative condition

  • How does Fucicort cream work?
    Fucicort cream contains fusidic acid and betamethasone valerate. Among these, fusidic acid is an antibiotic that clears skin infection, while betamethasone valerate produces an anti-inflammatory action and reduces swelling, redness, and itching associated with conditions that cause infection and inflammation of the skin.
  • Can I apply Fucicort cream on open wounds?
    It is generally advisable to avoid applying Fucicort cream on open wounds as it may cause irritation and exacerbate some symptoms. Also, Fucicort cream contains chlorocresol and cetostearyl alcohol as excipients. Chlorocresol is reported to cause allergic reactions, and Cetostearyl alcohol may cause a local skin reaction (contact dermatitis).
  • Can I use Fucicort on my face?
    Yes, Fucicort cream may be used on the face. If the cream is applied to the face, be careful to avoid the eyes.
  • Can I use Fucicort cream during pregnancy or lactation?
    It is advisable to avoid the use of Fucicort cream for a long duration or in large amounts during pregnancy or breastfeeding. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult with your doctor to know whether it is safe to use this cream.
  • How to store Fucicort cream?
    Store Fucicort cream at room temperature. Avoid direct exposure to sunlight. Keep it out of the reach of children and pets. Do not use the medication three months after you first open it. Discard the medication after three months of opening it or once the expiry date mentioned on the carton is over.
