FucortH Cream:

Combining Powerhouse Ingredients for Skin Health

Introduction

Fucort H Cream, a combination of Fusidic Acid B.P and Hydrocortisone Acetate B.P, is a versatile dermatological solution that harnesses the antibacterial prowess of Fusidic Acid with the anti inflammatory and antipruritic effects of Hydrocortisone Acetate. In this article, we will explore the composition, pharmacology, indications, dosage, contraindications, side effects, precautions, and use in various patient groups, providing comprehensive information about Fucort H Cream.

Composition and Pharmacology

Fucort H Cream contains:

• Fusidic Acid B.P: An antimicrobial agent effective against a range of bacteria, Fusidic Acid interferes with protein synthesis in microorganisms, inhibiting their growth.
• Hydrocortisone Acetate B.P: A glucocorticosteroid, Hydrocortisone reduces skin responses to injury, exhibiting anti inflammatory, immunosuppressant, and antimitotic properties.

Indications

Fucort H Cream is indicated for a variety of skin conditions where bacterial infections are present or suspected, including:

• Primary irritant dermatitis
• Contact allergic dermatitis
• Eczema (atopic, infantile, discoid, stasis)
• Seborrhoeic dermatitis
• Dosage and Application

For adults, FucortH Cream should be applied three times daily and gently massaged onto affected areas for up to two weeks. Consider a shorter course if symptoms improve. Not recommended for children under 3 years of age.

Contraindications

Avoid Fucort H Cream if you have hypersensitivity to Fusidic Acid, Hydrocortisone Acetate, or other cream components. Contraindicated in cases of non susceptible bacterial infections, fungal infections, tuberculosis of the skin, syphilitic skin infections, chickenpox, post vaccination eruptions, and viral skin diseases.

Side Effects

Side effects are generally local and include dryness, itching, local irritation, striae, skin atrophy, atrophy of subcutaneous tissues, telangiectasia, hypertrichosis, change in pigmentation, and secondary infection. Avoid applying to the face to prevent acne rosacea or perioral dermatitis.

Precautions and Warnings

• Avoid contact with eyes to prevent conjunctival irritation by Fusidic Acid
• When using under occlusive dressings, on extensive skin areas, or on sensitive areas, sufficient absorption may occur, leading to systemic effects like adrenal suppression

Use in Pregnancy and Lactation

The safety of Fusidic Acid and topical Hydrocortisone Acetate during pregnancy or lactation is undetermined. Use during pregnancy or lactation should consider potential benefits versus risks to the fetus or nursing infant.

Use in Children

• FucortH Cream has shown no increased adverse effects in children aged 3 and above. However, there is limited data available for children under 3 years.

Drug Interactions

Fusidic Acid may potentially inhibit the metabolism of drugs undergoing extensive liver biotransformation, although no concrete evidence supports this. Topical Hydrocortisone Acetate has not reported any hazardous drug interactions.

Storage

Store Fucort H Cream below 30°C, protecting it from light, heat, and freezing. Keep it out of children's reach.

In conclusion, Fucort H Cream combines the strengths of Fusidic Acid and Hydrocortisone Acetate to provide an effective solution for a variety of skin conditions. Proper application and adherence to precautions ensure safe and effective use, offering relief for those facing skin challenges. Always consult with a medical professional before use.
