Abstract: The invention discloses a process to make dermaceutical cream containing Fusidic acid which is formed in situ from Sodium Fusidate as the starting raw material, wherein Sodium Fusidate is converted into Fusidic acid under oxygen-free environment created using inert gas, preferably nitrogen. The cream produced by the process of the present invention has greater shelf-life stability and the finer particle size of the API than the conventional creams containing Fusidic acid. The cream produced by the process of the present invention contains Fusidic acid as the API that has been formed in situ from Sodium Fusidate, in a cream base comprising a preservative, an acid, a co-solvent, an emulsifier and a waxy material along with water, preferably purified water. The cream produced by the process of the present invention further optionally contains an ingredient selected from a group comprising, a buffering agent, an anti oxidant, a chelating agent, and a humectant, or any combination thereof.

Abstract: The invention discloses a process to make dermaceutical gel containing Fusidic acid which is formed in situ from Sodium Fusidate as the starting raw material, wherein Sodium Fusidate is converted into Fusidic acid under oxygen-free environment comprising an inert gas, preferably nitrogen. The gel produced by the process of the present invention has greater shelf-life stability and the finer particle size of the API than the conventional creams containing Fusidic acid. The gel also contains Fusidic acid as the API that has been formed in situ from Sodium Fusidate, in a gel base; said gel base comprising a natural, semi-synthetic or synthetic polymers, a preservative, an acid, an alkali, a co-solvent, along with water, preferably purified water. The gel produced by the process of the present invention further optionally contains an ingredient selected from a group comprising, an anti oxidant, a chelating agent, and a humectant, or any combination thereof.

Abstract: The invention discloses a dermaceutical cream containing steroids and an antibacterial agent in the form of Fusidic acid, which Fusidic acid is formed in situ from Sodium Fusidate as the starting raw material, wherein Sodium Fusidate is converted into Fusidic acid under oxygen-free environment. The cream of the present invention has greater shelf-life stability and the finer particle size of the API than the conventional creams containing Fusidic acid. The cream of the present invention contains Fusidic acid as the API that has been formed in situ from Sodium Fusidate, and steroids in a cream base comprising an acid, a co-solvent, an emulsifier and a waxy material along with water, preferably purified water.

Abstract: The invention discloses a dermaceutical cream containing antifungal agents, steroids and an antibacterial agent in the form of Fusidic acid, which Fusidic acid is formed in situ from Sodium Fusidate as the starting raw material, wherein Sodium Fusidate is converted into Fusidic acid under oxygen-free environment. The cream of the present invention has greater shelf-life stability and the finer particle size of the API than the conventional creams containing Fusidic acid. The cream of the present invention contains Fusidic acid as the API that has been formed in situ from Sodium Fusidate, and steroids in a cream base comprising an acid, a co-solvent, an emulsifier and a waxy material along with water, preferably purified water.

Abstract: The present invention relates to primary and secondary bacterial skin infections and in particular it relates to the treatment of these infections using a Fusidic acid cream that has been made using Sodium fusidate as the starting Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API). The invention discloses a dermaceutical cream containing Fusidic acid which is formed in situ from Sodium Fusidate as the starting raw material, wherein Sodium Fusidate is converted into Fusidic acid under oxygen-free environment. The cream of the present invention has greater shelf-life stability and the finer particle size of the API than the conventional creams containing Fusidic acid.
