MupiroDermal 20 mg/g ointment

Mupirocin 20 mg/g ointment is indicated for the topical treatment of primary and secondary bacterial skin infections. It is active against those organisms responsible for most skin infections, such as Staphylococcus aureus, including methicillin-resistant strains, other staphylococci and streptococci. It is also active against Gram-negative organisms such as Escherichia coli and Haemophilus influenzae.

Mupirocin 20 mg/g ointment is used to treat:
Primary skin infections: Impetigo, folliculitis, furunculosis and eczema.

Secondary infections: Infected dermatoses, e.g. infected eczema. Infected traumatic lesions, e.g. abrasions, insect bites, minor (not requiring hospitalization) wounds and burns.

Prophylaxis: Mupirocin can be used to avoid bacterial contamination of small wounds, incisions and other clean lesions and to prevent infection in abrasions, minor cuts and wounds.
