Are you Looking to Buy Bactroban Nasal Ointment (Mupirocin) from PrescriptionPoint.

Bactroban Nasal Ointment (mupirocin)

Indications 

• Bactroban nasal ointment is used for: 
• Eradication of Nasal Carriage of Staphylococcus aureus: Effectively treats and eliminates the presence of Staphylococcus aureus (including MRSA) in the nasal passages to prevent the spread of infection. 
• Prevention of Surgical Site Infections: Often used preoperatively in patients who are nasal carriers of Staphylococcus aureus to reduce the risk of post-surgical infections. 

Ingredients 

• Active Ingredient: Mupirocin calcium 2%. 
• Inactive Ingredients: Paraffin, soft white paraffin. 

Dosage and Administration 

• Apply Bactroban nasal ointment as directed by your healthcare provider, typically twice a day for 5 days. 
• Use a small amount (about the size of a matchstick head) inside each nostril. 
• After application, press the sides of the nose together gently and massage for about a minute to spread the ointment throughout the nostrils. 
• Wash your hands before and after applying the ointment to avoid contamination or spreading the bacteria. 
• Do not use Bactroban nasal ointment for longer than prescribed, as overuse may lead to reduced effectiveness or resistance. 
• Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, or other mucous membranes. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. 
• Do not share this medication with others, even if they have similar symptoms, to prevent the spread of bacteria. 

Mechanism of Action 

Bactroban nasal ointment works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis. Mupirocin, the active ingredient, selectively binds to bacterial isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, an enzyme essential for protein production in bacteria. This binding leads to the inhibition of bacterial replication, effectively killing the bacteria present in the nasal passages. It is particularly effective against Staphylococcus aureus, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). 

Contraindications 

• Do not use if you are allergic to mupirocin or any of the other ingredients in the ointment. 
• Not recommended for use in children under 12 years of age unless specifically directed by a healthcare provider. 
• Avoid use in individuals with a known sensitivity to polyethylene glycol, as the ointment base contains paraffin. 

Side Effects 

Common Side Effects: 

• Mild itching or irritation inside the nose 
• Dryness or peeling around the nostrils 
• Sneezing 
• Unpleasant taste in the mouth 

Serious Side Effects: 

• Severe allergic reactions such as rash, hives, or difficulty breathing (rare) 
• Persistent or worsening nasal irritation 
• Severe burning or stinging sensation 

Precautions 

• Use the ointment exactly as prescribed to avoid the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. 
• Inform your doctor if you experience any severe side effects or if your symptoms do not improve after the full course of treatment. 
• Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using Bactroban nasal ointment. 
• Avoid using the ointment on other areas of the body or on open wounds, as it is formulated specifically for nasal use. 
• If you have a history of nasal or sinus surgery, inform your healthcare provider before using this medication. 

Storage Instructions 

• Store Bactroban nasal ointment at room temperature, between 68°F to 77°F (20°C to 25°C). 
• Keep the tube tightly closed when not in use to prevent contamination. 
• Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. 
• Do not freeze the ointment, as this can affect its consistency and efficacy.
