Abstract
Data regarding the role of cutaneous microbiome in physiological and pathological conditions, pharmacological properties of fusidic acid and its clinical use for the treatment of skin infections are presented in the article. Incidence of skin infections in children treated in children’s city polyclinic No. 1 of Izhevsk city through 2019–2022 are analyzed. Outcomes of the treatment of these patients with topical fusidic acid preparations are presented. Due to high activity against typical cutaneous bacterial pathogens including MRSA strains of Staphylococcus aureus, favorable safety profile and pharmacokinetic profile when topically applied along with low resistance of the key pathogens fusidic acid preparations are the first line treatment of primary and secondary pyodermas.
