Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern.

Thanks for your query . Fucidin is an antibiotics cream and is effective in relieving the symptoms . In case of acne which are infected by microorganism like bacteria this cream is quite effective that why doctor prescribe you this cream.

I would suggest you to wash affected area 2-3 times a day with mild soap and warm water .You can also use tea tree oil and aloe vera gel.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
