Sofraheal Cream (Fradiomycin)
Sofraheal Cream contains fradiomycin (a topical aminoglycoside antibiotic often referred to as framycetin/fradiomycin depending on brand). It is formulated to prevent and treat superficial bacterial skin infections and to aid wound healing in minor cuts, abrasions, grazes, burns and post-procedure local infections. Sofraheal works locally at the application site and has minimal systemic absorption when used as directed.
Sofraheal Cream is commonly used as a topical antibiotic dressing to reduce the risk of infection and support tissue repair in minor skin injuries.
Product introduction
Sofraheal Cream is a topical antibacterial preparation intended for external use. It provides local antibacterial action against susceptible Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms commonly found in superficial skin infections. By applying a thin layer to the affected area, the cream helps prevent bacterial colonization and supports the natural healing process.
Use Sofraheal only externally, and avoid prolonged use on large areas or deep wounds unless advised by a clinician.
Uses of Sofraheal Cream (Fradiomycin)
Sofraheal Cream is used for:
- Minor cuts, abrasions and grazes
- Superficial burns (first-degree / small second-degree, as advised)
- Infected or at-risk wounds to prevent bacterial colonization
- Localised impetigo or bacterial skin infections (mild cases)
- Post-procedure wound care for small surgical or dermatological procedures (clinician-directed)
Note: Not suitable for deep wounds, animal bites, large burns, or systemic infections. Seek medical attention for severe or spreading infections.
Benefits of Sofraheal Cream (Fradiomycin)
Why clinicians and patients choose Sofraheal for topical care:
- Targeted local antibacterial action reduces surface bacterial load.
- Minimal systemic absorption when used topically as directed.
- Easy topical application — cream base soothes and protects the wound bed.
- Helps prevent secondary infection in minor wounds and burns.
- Supports wound healing when combined with appropriate cleaning and dressing.
In Treatment of Worm infections
Important: Sofraheal Cream is antibacterial and does not treat parasitic or worm infections. Use specific antiparasitic treatments for such conditions.
Side effects of Sofraheal Cream
Topical use generally causes few systemic effects, but local irritation or allergic responses can occur.
Common side effects
- Local redness or mild irritation
- Mild burning or stinging on application
- Dryness or peeling at the application site
Serious but rare: allergic contact dermatitis, severe local hypersensitivity or worsening of the wound. Stop use and seek medical advice if severe rash, swelling, blistering, or signs of systemic illness occur.
How to use Sofraheal Cream (Fradiomycin)
- Clean the affected area gently with mild soap and water and pat dry.
- Apply a thin layer of Sofraheal Cream to the affected skin once or twice daily, or as advised by your clinician.
- Cover with a sterile dressing if recommended, especially for wounds subject to dirt or friction.
- Do not apply to large areas, deep wounds, puncture wounds, or burns requiring specialist care, unless directed by a clinician.
- Wash hands after application unless the hands are the treated area.
If no improvement is seen within a few days, or if the wound worsens or shows spreading redness, pus, increasing pain or fever, seek medical attention promptly.
How Sofraheal Cream (Fradiomycin) works
Fradiomycin (framycetin-type aminoglycoside) acts by binding to bacterial ribosomes and inhibiting protein synthesis, which leads to bacterial death. When applied topically, it reduces bacterial counts locally and helps prevent or treat superficial skin infections.
Safety advice
| Allergies | Avoid if you have a known allergy to aminoglycoside antibiotics or any component of the cream. Perform a patch test if you have sensitive skin. |
| Pregnancy | Topical use is generally low risk but consult your clinician before using during pregnancy. |
| Breastfeeding | Safe when not applied to breast area; avoid infant contact with treated skin. |
| Children | Use in children only under paediatric or clinician guidance — avoid application near eyes or mucous membranes. |
| Application cautions | Do not use on deep wounds, severe burns or large areas without medical advice. Avoid contact with eyes and mouth. |
| Drug interactions | Minimal systemic interactions are expected with topical use. Inform clinician of all medicines if prolonged or widespread use is planned. |
What if you forget to use Sofraheal Cream?
If you forget an application, apply it when you remember and continue with your regular schedule. Do not double the amount to make up for a missed application.
All substitutes
Alternative topical agents may be considered depending on the condition:
- Mupirocin ointment (Mupirocin 2% for localized impetigo)
- Fusidic acid cream/ointment
- Antiseptic dressings or povidone-iodine for wound cleansing
- Topical silver sulfadiazine for larger burns (clinician-guided)
Choice of substitute depends on wound type, organism sensitivity and clinician recommendation.
Quick tips
- Keep minor wounds clean and covered to reduce contamination.
- Avoid using multiple topical products simultaneously unless advised.
- If you have sensitive skin, perform a small patch test before broader use.
- Seek prompt medical care for any signs of spreading infection or systemic symptoms.

Patient concerns
Can I use Sofraheal on my burn? For small, superficial burns you may use topical antibiotic cream after cooling the burn and cleaning it; seek medical attention for larger or deep burns.
Will it leave a scar? Proper wound care (cleaning, moist wound environment, protection from infection) reduces scarring risk; severe wounds may still scar and need specialist care.
User feedback
Many users report faster healing and reduced signs of superficial infection when Sofraheal is used appropriately. Mild local irritation is the most commonly reported issue.
