Fucidin

Fucidin contains fusidic acid, a potent antibacterial agent. Fusidic acid and its salts show fat and water solubility and strong surface activity, and exhibit an unusual ability to penetrate intact skin. Concentrations of 0.03–0.12mcg fusidic acid per ml inhibit nearly all strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Topical application is also effective against streptococci, corynebacteria, niesseria and certain clostridia

Fucidin H Cream

Fucidin H Cream combines the potent topical antibacterial action of fusidic acid with the anti-inflammatory and antipruritic effects of hydrocortisone. Concentrations of 0.03–0.12µg/ml of fusidic acid inhibit nearly all strains of Staphylococcus aureus. Topical application of fusidic acid is also effective against Streptococcus, Corynebacterium, Neisseria and certain clostridia

It is a thin, oily liquid, which spreads quickly and completely through the hair to saturate the scalp and kill head lice and eliminate their eggs.
