Dermatologists in Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad and Rawalpindi frequently recommend Udic Cream 15g for common bacterial skin infections. It suits Pakistan's hot, humid climate where skin infections are frequent.
Fusidic acid works by stopping bacteria from making the proteins they need to survive and multiply. This clears the infection and helps the skin heal faster.
Udic Cream 15g should only be used on the affected area for the period advised, usually one to two weeks. Longer use can lead to antibiotic resistance.
