Hi,

Nadibact cream contains nadifloxacin which is an antibiotic is used to treat bacterial skin Infections. It relieves the symptoms of the infection by stopping the further growth of the causative microorganisms. It prevents the synthesis of essential proteins necessary for the survival of bacteria.

It is safe and effective against skin Infections like boils, impetigo and infected hair follicles. It may also be used to treat Infections in small cuts or wounds on skin. The treatment has few common side effects like burning sensation, itching, irritation and redness at the site of application and should clear up Infections within a few days. But you should keep using it for as long as it is prescribed.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
