Mupirocin Ointment

Mupirocin Ointment, marketed by HAB, is a 5 g topical antibiotic formulation that contains the active substance mupirocin, effective against a broad spectrum of gram‑positive bacteria. It is intended for short‑term treatment of minor skin infections such as impetigo, small cuts, burns, and abrasions, providing rapid bacterial eradication and symptom relief. Nevertheless, prolonged or extensive use can cause local skin irritation, increase the risk of antibiotic resistance, and it must not be applied by individuals with known hypersensitivity to mupirocin.
