Fuobact-M Cream is used to treat bacterial skin infections, such as eczema and dermatitis, nasal polyps (painless growth on the lining of the nose or sinuses), dermatoses (lesions or eruptions of the skin) and impetigo (red sores on the face). Fuobact-M Cream stops the growth of bacteria and blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy. It may cause common side effects, such as itching, dryness, redness, and a burning sensation at the application site. Before using this medicine, you should tell your doctor if you are allergic to any of its components or if you are pregnant/breastfeeding, and about all the medications you are taking and pre-existing medical conditions.

About Fuobact-M Cream

Fuobact-M Cream is used to treat bacterial skin infections, such as eczema and dermatitis, nasal polyps (painless growth on the lining of the nose or sinuses), dermatoses (lesions or eruptions of the skin) and impetigo (red sores on the face). Bacterial infection occurs when harmful bacteria grow in the body and cause disease.

Fuobact-M Cream is composed of Mometasone and Fusidic acid. Mometasone blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that make the affected area inflamed. Fusidic acid prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.

Fuobact-M Cream has common side effects, including itching, dryness, redness, and a burning sensation at the application site. If you face any other symptoms or the side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Let your doctor know if you have any allergic reactions to Fuobact-M Cream or other medications. Fuobact-M Cream is not recommended for diaper rash. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult a doctor before starting Fuobact-M Cream.

How Fuobact-M Cream Works

Fuobact-M Cream is composed of two medicines: Mometasone (corticosteroid) and Fusidic acid (antibiotic). Mometasone belongs to the class of corticosteroids. Corticosteroids have anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive and antiproliferative (inhibit cell growth) properties. It blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that cause the affected area to become red, swollen, and itchy. On the other hand, Fusidic acid is an antibiotic and prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. It is used to treat infections like dermatitis (inflammation of the skin), spots, cuts, grazes, impetigo (weeping, crusty and swollen patches of skin) and folliculitis (inflammation of one or more hair follicles).
