Uses of Cutivat M Oint 10gm

Cutivat M Oint 10gm is applied to the skin to treat inflamed skin conditions, such as eczema or dermatitis, that have become infected with bacteria.

How Cutivat M Oint 10gm works

Fluticasone is a potent corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, redness, swelling and itching in the skin. Mupirocin is an antibiotic that stops bacteria such as Staphylococcus and Streptococcus from making the proteins they need to grow, which clears the infection.

Possible side effects

Cutivat M Oint 10gm is usually well tolerated, though some people get skin reactions where it is applied, such as:

• Burning or stinging
• Itching
• Dryness of the skin
• Redness

Stop using it and see a doctor if the rash spreads or worsens, if you develop blistering or swelling, or if you notice signs of an allergic reaction.

Precautions and warnings

• Use it only for the time your doctor advises, as longer use can thin the skin and allow resistant bacteria to develop.

• It does not treat fungal or viral skin infections such as ringworm, cold sores or chickenpox.
• Take extra care in children, and wash your hands after applying it.
