Development of a Nanoemulgel for the Topical Application of Mupirocin

Pharmaceutics, 2023
Mupirocin (MUP) is an effective topical antibiotic with poor skin permeability; however, its skin permeability can be improved by a nanoemulsion formulation based on eucalyptus oil or eucalyptol. Despite this improvement, the nanoemulsion has limitations,

Development of Nanoemulsions for Topical Application of Mupirocin

Pharmaceutics, 2023
Mupirocin (MUP) is a topical antibacterial agent used to treat superficial skin infections but has limited application due to in vivo inactivation and plasma protein binding.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus mupirocin resistance rates in a large healthcare system

Antimicrobial Stewardship & Healthcare Epidemiology, 2023
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a common etiology of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs). One strategy to reduce HAIs due to MRSA involves a multistep decolonization process.

Efficacy of mupirocin, neomycin and octenidine for nasal Staphylococcus aureus decolonisation: a retrospective cohort study

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2022
Periprosthetic joint infection (PJI) causes significant morbidity. Methicillin sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) is the most frequent organism, and the majority are endogenous. Decolonisation reduces PJIs but there is a paucity of evidence comparing
