Mupicip Ointment is an elite, targeted broad-spectrum topical antibacterial formulation engineered by Cipla Ltd. specifically to safely eliminate pyogenic dermatological conditions and combat localized epidermal pathogens. It features an advanced therapeutic technology inspired by cellular protein inhibition, utilizing highly purified Mupirocin (2% w/w) that acts like a microscopic chemical shield to eradicate 99% of pathogenic Gram-positive micro-flora, including resistant Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes strains. It gently binds to the bacterial isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase enzyme, halts internal amino acid incorporation, and terminates protein synthesis replication without disrupting the surrounding healthy tissue structures or causing systemic absorption risks. By maintaining a strictly sterile, non-infectious baseline environments and preventing the risk of bacterial resistance cascades, it leaves compromised or traumatized skin profiles feeling deeply repaired, structurally fortified, and completely cleared of active microbial infections within days.

How To Use

Proper usage instructions for best results

Primary Medical Uses:
* Bacterial Skin Infection Treatment: Formulated with Mupirocin (2% w/w) as a topical antibiotic to treat primary skin infections such as impetigo, folliculitis, and minor boils caused by susceptible bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes.

* Secondary Infection Prevention: Helps prevent or treat secondary bacterial infections in minor cuts, grazes, wounds, or small surgical incisions.

Guidelines for Use:
* Preparation & Hygiene: Wash your hands thoroughly before and after applying the ointment. Clean and dry the affected area gently before application.

* Administration: Apply a small amount of the ointment to the affected area using a clean finger or a sterile cotton swab, typically 2 to 3 times a day as directed by your physician.

* Coverage & Duration: The treated area may be covered with a sterile bandage or gauze dressing if advised by your doctor. Complete the full prescribed course of treatment, even if the skin appears to heal sooner.

* Precautions: For external use only. Avoid contact with the eyes, nose, or mouth. If accidental contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Do not mix with other topical creams or ointments on the same site unless directed by your doctor. Keep out of reach of children and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Important precautions and warnings

Important Precautions & Safety Measures
  • External Use Only: This medication is strictly for topical use on the skin. Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, or inside the nose (unless specifically directed for nasal application by a physician). Rinse thoroughly with water if accidental contact occurs.

  • Not for Large Open Wounds: Do not use mupirocin on large surface areas of broken skin or deep surgical wounds for extended periods, as the polyethylene glycol vehicle can be absorbed and affect kidney function.
