Mupirocin ointment. how long should i wait to blow my nose after applying this ointment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mupirocin nasal, : You need to clear your nasal passages before applying it, if for Ny reason you need to blow your nose right, you can do that and reapply, otherwise, I would say 20-30 minutes would be enough for the cream to absorbed, best wishes
