Muposten Ointment 15g

Muposten Ointment is a topical antibiotic containing mupirocin 2% w/w as its active ingredient. It is used for the short-term treatment of bacterial skin infections such as impetigo caused by organisms including Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes. The ointment is applied directly to the affected area and should be used for the full prescribed course, even if the skin appears to improve before treatment is completed. Stopping treatment too early may allow the infection to return or worsen and may contribute to bacterial resistance. Some people may experience mild skin irritation, redness, dryness, or rash at the application site. This medicine is intended for external skin use only and should not be used inside the nose, eyes, or on other mucous membranes unless a specifically formulated product has been prescribed. Prolonged use may allow overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms, including fungi, so treatment duration should be confirmed by a healthcare professional, particularly in patients with kidney impairment.

Apply the ointment to the affected area 2 to 3 times daily, or as directed by your doctor, for the prescribed duration of treatment. If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for your next application.

Store the ointment at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, heat, and moisture, and keep the tube tightly closed after each use. Keep out of reach of children.

Muposten Ointment is for external use on the skin only. Apply a small amount to the affected area as directed by your doctor. Wash your hands before and after application, unless the hands are the area being treated. Complete the full course of treatment even if symptoms improve before the course is finished.

Muposten Ointment generally has a shelf life of approximately 2–3 years from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and kept unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the tube before use.

Because Muposten is a topical antibiotic, significant systemic drug interactions are uncommon. Alcohol is not known to interact significantly with this medicine. However, the effects of applying other topical medicines or skin products to the same area at the same time have not been well studied, so inform your doctor or pharmacist about any other creams, ointments, or medicated products you are using.
