About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Halostrol-F Cream is a topical formulation containing Halometasone 0.05% w/w, a potent corticosteroid, combined with Fusidic Acid 2% w/w, a bacteriostatic antibiotic. This combination is specifically designed to provide effective anti-inflammatory, anti-pruritic, and antibacterial action in the management of various dermatological conditions. Halometasone exerts its therapeutic effect by inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators, thereby reducing redness, swelling, and itching associated with inflammatory skin disorders. Fusidic Acid targets gram-positive bacteria, particularly Staphylococcus aureus, by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, which helps in controlling secondary bacterial infections commonly seen in compromised skin. Halostrol-F Cream is indicated for the treatment of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses complicated by bacterial infections, such as eczema, psoriasis, and dermatitis with superimposed bacterial colonization. The cream should be applied in a thin layer to the affected area once or twice daily, as directed by a healthcare professional. Prolonged use should be avoided to minimize the risk of corticosteroid-related side effects, including skin atrophy and systemic absorption. It is contraindicated in viral, fungal, or tubercular skin infections. Patients should seek medical advice if symptoms persist or worsen during treatment.
