Fuzit 2% Cream belongs to a class of drugs called antibiotics used in the treatment of various bacterial infections of skin and wounds, heart tissue, bone, lungs, and blood. Also, it is used to treat infections associated with cystic fibrosis. Bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria grow in the body and cause infection.

Taking probiotics after antibiotic treatment can reduce the risk of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Certain fermented foods like cheese, yoghurt, kombucha, sauerkraut, and kimchi can help to restore the good bacteria of the intestine.
