Sodium Fusidate ointment is a topical antibiotic formulation based on sodium fusidate, the sodium salt of fusidic acid. Produced via fermentation and chemical neutralization, it effectively targets Gram-positive bacteria. Its molecular formula is C28H45NaO6 with CAS No. 147-10-2.
Avoid use in patients with known hypersensitivity to fusidic acid. Store below 25°C in a dry place away from direct sunlight. Discontinue if severe irritation occurs; prolonged systemic absorption requires monitoring for liver function.
