MANILA, Philippines - When a child scrapes an elbow, skins a knee or gets wounded, he doesn’t have to be scarred for life. Parents just need to make sure the wound doesn’t get infected. Infection occurs when bacteria enters the wound through a break in one’s skin. It attacks the injured area, damaging the tissues surrounding it. And if the infection does not heal right away, it could become a more serious disease. Fusidic acid/sodium fusidate (Fucidin) is a powerful antibiotic that is clinically proven to be effective against bacterial wound infections. Fucidin penetrates both intact and damaged skin deeply, reaching its deepest layer. It’s fast-acting, working on the infection two minutes upon application and reaching the deepest layer of the skin in 30 minutes.
