What is Fusiderm B?

Fusiderm B is a prescription topical cream used on the skin. It combines fusidic acid, an antibiotic that stops bacteria from multiplying, with betamethasone valerate, a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation. In Australia, doctors prescribe it when a skin condition is inflamed and likely infected, such as eczema or dermatitis with a crusted patch, or an infected scratch. The aim is to clear the bacterial infection and to ease redness, itching and swelling. It is not designed for viral infections, fungal problems, or simply to moisturise dry skin.

How to use Fusiderm B

Before applying, wash and dry the area. Apply a thin layer to the affected patch two to three times a day, or as directed by your clinician. Gently rub in; avoid getting the cream in your eyes, nose or mouth. Wash your hands after applying unless your hands are the treated area. Do not cover large areas or wrap with occlusive dressings unless your clinician says it’s okay. Do not use on broken skin if told not to; do not use for longer than your clinician recommends. If a dose is missed, apply as soon as you remember.

Who should use Fusiderm B in Australia

Fusiderm B is for adults and older children when a skin infection with inflammation is present. In younger children, clinicians may adjust the strength or duration. It should be used for short periods; extended use can thin the skin, make it more prone to injury and, rarely, suppress local skin immunity. People with a history of sensitive skin or rosacea should discuss this treatment with their doctor, especially if the patch is on the face or near the eyes. It is not appropriate for routine skin care.

What to expect and local cautions

Many users notice improvement within two to three days as itching and redness lessen. Complete clearing can take longer, depending on the infection and skin type. If there is no improvement after 3–5 days, or if the skin worsens, contact your clinician. In Australia, dry air, sun exposure and sweating can irritate the skin, so follow gentle cleansing and a moisturiser as advised, and avoid sunburn near treated areas.

Side effects and safety

Common issues include mild burning, stinging, or redness at the application site, along with dry skin or a temporary acne flare in the treated area. Less often, you may develop a skin thinning or stretch marks with long-term use. Rarely, an allergic reaction can occur. Seek urgent help if you have swelling of the face, lips or tongue, severe rash, or trouble breathing. Do not use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding unless your clinician says it is safe. Do not use if you know of resistance to fusidic acid.

Customer review

"Fusiderm B helped my eczema with a crust significantly faster than I expected," says a patient in Sydney. "The two-in-one antibiotic and steroid cream reduced itching within two days. I used the full course as instructed and didn’t have any extra skin irritation." Another reviewer notes, "My son developed a mild rash that looked infected after playing outdoors. The cream soothed the area quickly and parents were relieved." Everyone reacts differently, so follow your clinician’s instructions and monitor how the skin responds.

Storage and online order notes

Store Fusiderm B at room temperature, away from heat and moisture, and keep out of reach of children. Check the expiry date before use. In Australia, Fusiderm B is usually prescribed, and online pharmacies will require a current prescription. When ordering online, follow the pharmacist’s instructions and only use as directed. If you are unsure about applying near the eyes or on the face, ask your pharmacist or doctor for guidance.
