Fusiwal Ointment contains Sodium Fusidate (2% w/w), which works on your body in the following ways:

• Inhibits Bacterial Protein Synthesis: Sodium Fusidate binds to a substance called elongation factor G (EF-G) present in bacteria. This substance plays a critical role in helping bacteria grow by aiding in protein synthesis.

• Prevents Bacterial Multiplication: By binding to EF-G, Sodium Fusidate halts the process of protein synthesis in its tracks. This action disrupts the growth of bacteria and leads to a decrease in bacterial multiplication. As a result, it helps resolve the infection effectively.

• Store Fusiwal Ointment at room temperature below 25°C.

• Ensure the is tightly closed when not in use.

• Always keep it out of children's reach.

• Maintain good personal hygiene to prevent spreading or worsening skin infections. Regularly wash your hands and avoid sharing personal items like towels.
