About Flusid B Cream 10gm

Flusid B Cream 10gm belongs to the class of medications called ‘dermatological agents’ used to treat skin diseases such as eczema and psoriasis. Eczema is a condition in which skin becomes red, itchy, and inflamed due to external agents such as soaps, dyes, or other irritants. Psoriasis is an autoimmune (immune system attacks healthy cells) skin disorder in which the skin becomes scaly, swelled up, and itchy.

Flusid B Cream 10gm is a combination of two medicines: Beclometasone and Fusidic acid. Beclometasone is a corticosteroid and anti-inflammatory agent that blocks prostaglandin's production (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen, and itchy. Fusidic acid is an antibiotic and prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.

You should use this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. Flusid B Cream 10gm may cause side effects such as itching, dryness, redness, irritation, stretch marks, acne, hair growth, and a burning sensation at the application site. These side effects usually do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if you notice any other symptoms or the side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Do not use Flusid B Cream 10gm if you are allergic to Beclometasone, Fusidic acid, or any other ingredients present in it. Flusid B Cream 10gm is not recommended for use in conditions such as rosacea (a skin condition affecting the face), acne, skin atrophy (thinning of the skin), wounds, or broken skin. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Directions for Use

Apply a generous amount of Flusid B Cream 10gm and spread it evenly on the affected areas of the skin to form a 1/8-inch thick layer with clean and dry hands. You can also apply Flusid B Cream 10gm with a piece of clean cotton wool or gauze swab. Wash your hands before and after using Flusid B Cream 10gm on the affected areas unless the treatment is for hands.

Drug Warnings
