About Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm
Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm is a dermatological medication primarily used to treat bacterial skin infections, such as eczema and dermatitis. Bacterial infection occurs when harmful bacteria grow in the body and causes disease. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly. Eczema is a condition in which skin patches become inflamed, itchy, cracked, and rough. Some eczema types can also lead to blisters (a small bubble on the skin filled with serum and caused by friction, burning, or other damage). Dermatitis is a skin condition that causes itchy, dry skin or a rash on swollen, reddened skin.
Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm contains Halobetasol (corticosteroid) and Fusidic acid (antibiotic). Halobetasol belongs to the class of high-potency topical corticosteroids. Corticosteroids have anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive and antiproliferative (inhibit cell growth) properties. Halobetasol blocks prostaglandins (chemical messengers) production, making the affected area red, swollen, and itchy. It effectively treats inflammation and itchiness caused by eczema (inflamed and itchy skin) and psoriasis (skin cells build up and form scales and itchy, dry patches). On the other hand, Fusidic acid is an antibiotic that prevents bacteria from synthesising 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 patch of skin), and folliculitis (inflammation of one or more hair follicles).
Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm is available in the topical (for skin) forms of cream, ointment, and gel. Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your infection. Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm has common side effects like itching, dryness, redness, 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 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 Halobetasol, Fusidic acid, or other medications. Do not use Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm on thin skin, skin ulcers, broken veins, or acne without a doctor's advice. Do not apply tight dressings and bandages on the skin's affected areas after using Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm unless the doctor advised. Halobetasol in Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm is not recommended for diaper rash, diabetes, Cushing's disease (high cortisol levels), cataracts, and glaucoma. Do not use Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm on sensitive areas like nostrils, ears, lips, or genitals if the doctor did not advise you. Pregnant and breastfeeding mothers should consult the doctor before starting Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm. If you have diabetes, liver disease, adrenal gland disorder, or any skin infection, inform your doctor before taking Haloroft-F Cream 15 gm.
