A little more about Bactroban 2% Cream
Bactroban 2% Cream: Things you need to know

Bactrobans main indgredient is mupirocin. Mupirocin is an antibiotic that prevents bacteria from growing on your skin.

Bactroban cream is used to treat impetigo and to treat infections on your skin in small cuts, lacerations, wounds or on scraped skin, by killing bacteria causing infections on your skin called ‘Staphylococcus aureus’ and ‘Streptococcus pyogens’. Treatment should not exceed 10 days. 

Warnings and Precautions:

  • Bactroban cream is to be used for the full amount of time prescribed by your GP or as recommended in the package even if you begin to feel better. Your symptoms may improve before the infection is completely healed.
  • Avoid your eyes, nose, mouth, and lips when applying Bactroban. If medication gets in any of these areas, wash with water.
  • Watch for signs of improvement in 3 to 5 days. If your condition gets worse or does not improve, see your GP.
  • Bactroban nasal ointment, is available for nasal use.
  • You should not use Bactroban cream if you are allergic to mupirocin.
  • Do not use Bactroban on a child without medical advice. The cream should not be used on a child younger than 3 months old. 

Tell your doctor if you:

  • Have or have had kidney disease.
  • Are pregnant or plan to become pregnant.
  • Are breast-feeding a baby. If you apply this medicine to your breast or nipple, wash the areas thoroughly before nursing your baby.

 

Ingredients:

The main active ingredient is: mupirocin calcium in an oil- and water-based emulsion.

The inactive ingredients are: benzyl alcohol, cetomacrogol 1000, cetyl alcohol, mineral oil, phenoxyethanol, purified water, stearyl alcohol, and xanthan gum.

You usually apply Bactroban on your skin up to 3 times a day.

  • Wash and dry your hands.
  • Place a small amount of Bactroban on a clean cotton wool pad or gauze swab.
  • Apply the cream to the infected area of your skin.
  • You can cover the treated area with a plaster or other suitable dressing, unless your doctor has told you to leave it uncovered.

Replace the cap on the tube and wash your hands

Use Bactroban for as long as your doctor has told you. If you are not sure, ask your GP, pharmacist or nurse. The bacteria are normally cleared from your skin within 10 days of starting treatment. Do not use for more than 10 days. Throw away any cream that is left over. If your skin condition does not improve within 3 to 5 days, see your doctor.

Common Bactroban side effects may include:

  • burning, stinging;
  • itching; or
  • pain.

Call your GP straight away if you have:

  • severe stomach pain, diarrhea that is watery or bloody;
  • severe itching, rash, or other irritation of treated skin;
  • unusual skin blistering or peeling; or
  • any signs of a new skin infection.

Get emergency medical help if you have signs of an allergic reaction to Bactroban.

These include:

  • hives;
  • dizziness,
  • fast or pounding heartbeats;
  • wheezing,
  • difficult breathing;
  • swelling of your face,
  • lips,
  • tongue,
