About Fudiwin-H Cream 15 gm

Fudiwin-H Cream 15 gm belongs to the dermatological medication class used to reduce swelling, itching, and redness caused due to eczema and dermatitis with secondary bacterial skin infections. Eczema is a skin condition in which the immune system becomes triggered and disordered, thereby causing inflammation, dry skin, itching, a skin rash that appears purple or grey, or red in colour.

Fudiwin-H Cream 15 gm is a combination of two drugs: Fusidic acid (antibiotic) and Hydrocortisone (corticosteroid). Fusidic acid belongs to the class of antibiotics that inhibit essential proteins necessary for bacteria to grow, multiply and increase in numbers. Thereby, it stops the growth of bacteria without killing them directly. Then the bacteria eventually die, or the immune system destroys them and clears the infection. Hydrocortisone belongs to the class of corticosteroids that act inside skin cells and inhibit the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching, and swelling. When the skin reacts to any allergens, such chemicals are released normally.
