Fumacid Cream 10gm contains fusidic acid (2%), which influences your body through these mechanisms:

• Bacterial Protein Synthesis Inhibition: Fusidic acid works by binding itself to an essential bacterial protein called elongation factor G (EF-G). This protein is vital for bacteria, as they require it to synthesize new proteins that aid their growth and spread.
• Halts Bacterial Growth: By attaching itself to EF-G, fusidic acid prevents a key step in bacterial protein synthesis called translocation. As a result, the growth of bacteria is stopped, curbing the spread of infection. This allows your body's immune system to eliminate the remaining bacteria effectively.
