That medication is normally used for dermatitis or other skin rashes/infections. I wouldn't use it for your nose piercing. Try H2Ocean, its a salt water base spray used for piercings. You can get it from any ';good'; tattoo/piercing shop. It runs about $5 buck. If your looking for an ointment try anti bacterial ointment.Can i use this cream as an antibiotic cream for my nose piercing?any medical knowledgeable people please help?
no. Fusidic acid is a very poor anti-infective. Hydrocortisone will reduce the swelling but increase the infection risk. Potassium sorbate is not an active ingredient.





take my advice, take out the nose ring and apply some Polysporin.
