Bacterial resistance among Staphylococcus aureus has been reported to occur with the use of topical Fucidin. As with all antibiotics, extended or recurrent use of fusidic acid may increase the risk of developing antibiotic resistance.
Fucidin cream contains butylhydroxyanisole, cetyl alcohol and potassium sorbate. These excipients may cause local skin reactions (e.g. contact dermatitis). Butylhydroxyanisole may also cause irritation to the eyes and mucous membranes. Fucidin cream should therefore be used with care when applied in the proximity of the eyes.
Effects On The Ability To Drive And Use Machines: Fucidin administered topically has no or negligible influence on the ability to drive or to use machines.
