How Does fusidic acid cream Work?

• Step 1: After application, the cream spreads over the affected skin area.
• Step 2: Fusidic acid penetrates the outer layers of the skin where bacterial infection is present.
• Step 3: It inhibits bacterial protein synthesis, which is essential for bacterial growth and survival.
• Step 4: This action stops the bacteria from multiplying and spreading.
• Step 5: As bacterial growth is controlled, the skin begins to heal and symptoms like redness and irritation gradually improve.
