Motimesh SF Cream 10gm

Motimesh SF Cream 10 gm is a dermatological medication primarily used to treat bacterial skin infections, such as eczema and dermatitis, nasal polyps (painless growth on the lining of the nose or sinuses), dermatoses (lesions or eruptions of the skin) and impetigo (red sores on the face). Bacterial infection occurs when harmful bacteria grow in the body and causes disease. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly.

Motimesh-SF Cream 10 gm is composed of two medicines: Mometasone (corticosteroid) and Fusidic acid (antibiotic). Mometasone belongs to the class of corticosteroids. Corticosteroids have anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive and antiproliferative (inhibit cell growth) properties. It blocks the production of prostaglandins (chemical messengers) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy. On the other hand, Fusidic acid is an antibiotic and prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. It is used to treat infections like dermatitis (inflammation of the skin), spots, cuts, grazes, impetigo (weeping, crusty and swollen patch of skin) and folliculitis (inflammation of one or more hair follicles).

Motimesh-SF Cream 10 gm is available in the topical (for skin) forms of cream and ointment. Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your infection. Motimesh-SF Cream 10 gm has common side effects like itching, dryness, redness and burning sensation at the application site. These side effects usually do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if you face any other symptoms or the side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.

Let your doctor know if you have any allergic reactions to Mometasone, Fusidic acid or other medications. Motimesh-SF Cream 10 gm may cause hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis suppression (inadequate cortisol production), Cushing’s syndrome (high cortisol levels), hyperglycemia (high blood sugar levels) or glycosuria (excretion of glucose into the urine) in patients with liver failure.
