Ozewid Cream

Ozewid Cream is a topical antibacterial medication used to manage skin infections such as impetigo. Suitable for both adults and children aged two months and older, it works by targeting and stopping the growth of the bacteria responsible for the infection, helping prevent its spread across the skin.

This cream is meant for external use only. Apply it exactly as directed by your healthcare provider. Usually, a thin layer is applied to the affected skin area twice daily. It may be covered with sterile gauze or a bandage if needed. Always clean and dry the skin before application and wash your hands before and after use. If there’s no improvement within five days of treatment, contact your doctor for further advice.

Ozewid Cream is generally well tolerated. In rare cases, it may cause skin reactions such as redness, irritation, or dermatitis. Some individuals might also experience symptoms like seborrheic dermatitis or rosacea. If any unusual skin reactions occur, discontinue use and consult your doctor.

Be cautious not to let the cream come into contact with your eyes, mouth, or inside your nose. If accidental contact happens, rinse thoroughly with water. Do not use this cream if you have a known allergy to any of its ingredients.

This medication is primarily used to treat impetigo, a contagious bacterial skin infection characterized by red sores, especially common in children. When used consistently, it can reduce symptoms like itching, swelling, and redness. Most patients start noticing improvements within a few days of treatment, but it’s essential to complete the full course to fully eliminate the infection and avoid recurrence.

No significant risks have been reported during pregnancy or breastfeeding, although you should still consult your doctor before use. Since this is a topical medication, it is not expected to interfere with driving or affect liver and kidney function.

If you forget to apply a dose, do so as soon as you remember. If it’s close to the time for the next scheduled application, skip the missed dose and continue with your routine. Avoid applying extra cream to make up for the missed one.

Ozewid Cream contains an active agent from the quinolone class of antimicrobials, which interferes with the bacterial replication process by blocking essential enzymes responsible for DNA synthesis. This helps in effectively treating superficial skin infections.
