The polar bear is the newest of the eight bear species, and scientists believe that the polar bear evolved about 200,000 years ago from brown bear ancestors. Both polar bears and brown bears are big and are the largest land carnivores.
BACTROBANÂ® ointment is indicated for the topical treatment of impetigo due to susceptible isolates of Staphylococcus aureus(S. aureus) and Streptococcus pyogenes (S. pyogenes). Each gram of Bactroban Ointment contains 20 mg mupirocin in a water-miscible ointment base supplied in 22-gram tubes.
A small amount of BACTROBAN Ointment should be applied to the affected area 3 times daily. The area treated may be covered with a gauze dressing if desired. Patients not showing a clinical response within 3 to 5 days should be re-evaluated.
