Fluskin Plus Ointment 10 gm

Fluskin Plus Ointment belongs to the class 'Topical antibacterial and corticosteroids', which are primarily used in the treatment of skin infections. A skin infection can be caused by bacteria, fungi, viruses or parasites. Symptoms include itching, inflamed skin (swollen, hot, red), blistered skin, pus formation fever, and feeling unwell and tired.

Fluskin Plus Ointment is a combination of fluticasone and mupirocin. Fluticasone is a steroid medicine.

It kills bacteria by destroying the bacterial cell membrane. Fluskin Plus Ointment together improves the skin condition effectively.
