FAQs
1. Why is mupirocin used for skin infections?
Mupirocin has a unique mechanism — it inhibits isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, an enzyme essential for bacterial protein synthesis — making it highly effective against Gram-positive organisms including MRSA while having minimal systemic absorption.
2. Can Mutrum 2% Ointment be used for impetigo?
Yes — mupirocin is a first-line topical treatment for non-bullous impetigo. Apply as directed by your physician to the affected lesions.
3. Is a prescription required?

4. How long should I use Mutrum 2% Ointment?
Use only for the duration prescribed by your physician. Prolonged use may promote bacterial resistance; do not exceed the recommended treatment period.
5. What is MRSA nasal decolonisation?
MRSA nasal decolonisation involves applying mupirocin ointment inside the nostrils to eliminate MRSA carriage, reducing the risk of infection spread — performed strictly under physician supervision.
