Halox F Cream 10GM

Halox F Cream – Product Overview

Halox F Cream is a dermatological medication used to treat bacterial skin infections such as eczema and dermatitis. These conditions are characterized by inflamed, itchy, dry, or cracked skin, and can sometimes lead to blisters or weeping patches. Halox F Cream effectively treats inflammation, redness, and bacterial infections while promoting skin healing.

It contains two active ingredients:

Halobetasol – a high-potency topical corticosteroid with anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, and antiproliferative properties. It blocks prostaglandin production, reducing redness, swelling, and itchiness.

Fusidic Acid – an antibiotic that prevents bacterial protein synthesis, thereby eliminating bacterial infections such as impetigo, folliculitis, and infected cuts or grazes.

Halox F Cream is available in cream, ointment, and gel forms. Your doctor will advise the appropriate form and dosage based on the severity of your infection.
