Sulphacetamide

Sulphacetamide is a topical antibiotic medication primarily used for treating bacterial skin infections, such as acne and rosacea. The active ingredient, sulfacetamide sodium, works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria on the skin’s surface, thus helping to clear up inflammation and promote healing. This medication is available in various formulations, including creams, lotions, and solutions, allowing for targeted application to affected areas. Follow the prescribed usage instructions and complete the entire course of treatment, even if symptoms improve before the medication is finished, to ensure effective resolution of the infection and prevent the development of antibiotic resistance. As with any medication, potential side effects and precautions should be discussed with a healthcare professional before use.
