Thanks for your kindness
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Fucidin is prescribed for infection and is mostly used for this indication. I would suggest you to use calmine lotion for rosacea for better relief. I would not recommend Fucidin.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
