Metaz F Cream is a combination of two medicines: Mometasone and Fusidic Acid. Mometasone is a steroid medicine that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Fusidic Acid is an antibiotic that stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by the bacteria to carry out vital functions.
Apply the cream thinly and in sufficient quantity to cover the affected areas. Use Metaz F Cream two or three times a day as prescribed by your doctor. Wash your hands after using Metaz F Cream, unless it is used for treating skin infection on the hands.
No, do not stop taking Metaz F Cream until your doctor has prescribed a complete course of treatment. Your symptoms may improve before the infection is completely cured.
Metaz F Cream should not be used on the face. Do not use the medication for longer than the prescribed period of time. Do not apply a bandage or dressing to the area being treated, as this will increase absorption of the preparation and increase the risk of side effects. This medicine should only be used by the patient and never be given to other people even if their condition appears to be the same.
No, do not overuse Metaz F Cream for long periods or on large areas of skin. Use it as recommended by your doctor. Overusing the medicine can result in too much medicine being absorbed into the body. This may lead to thinning or weakening of the skin and other serious side effects. If you are experiencing increased severity of your symptoms, please consult your doctor for re-evaluation.
