Mupirocin ointment 2 for toddler vaginal infection, is this okay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mupirocin: Mupirocin is typically used for bacterial skin infections, specifically impetigo. If the vaginal infection is impetigo, Mupirocin would be appropriate. But if there is no impetigo, (ie: the infection is fungal), Mupirocin will not help.
