Apply a thin layer of Bactroban nasal ointment inside each nostril twice daily, morning and evening. Use a clean finger to gently apply the ointment, ensuring complete coverage of the affected area. Avoid touching your eyes or other parts of your face during application.
The recommended treatment duration is typically five to ten days. However, always follow your doctor’s specific instructions regarding the length of treatment. If your symptoms persist or worsen after this period, consult your healthcare provider immediately. They can assess your condition and advise on further treatment.
Proper hygiene is paramount. Wash your hands thoroughly before and after each application to prevent the spread of infection. Avoid sharing personal items, including tissues and towels, with others. For optimal results, carefully follow all instructions printed on the Bactroban nasal ointment tube and any accompanying patient information leaflet. Never exceed the recommended dosage.
