Mupirocin, with the chemical formula C26H44O9, has the CAS number 12650-69-0. It is a white to off-white powder with a faint odor. Mupirocin is an antibiotic that belongs to the class of drugs known as monoxycarbolic acids. Its basic structure consists of a monoxycarbolic acid attached to a complex fatty acid. This compound is practically insoluble in water. Mupirocin is considered to be safe for use when used as directed. However, it may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in some individuals. It is important to follow the recommended dosage and application instructions to minimize the risk of adverse effects. Mupirocin is primarily used topically to treat bacterial skin infections, such as impetigo and folliculitis. It works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial proteins, thereby preventing the growth and spread of bacteria.
Applicable Fields
Dermatology: Mupirocin is commonly used in dermatology to treat bacterial skin infections. Its mechanism of action involves inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial proteins, which helps to eliminate the infection and promote healing.
Pharmaceuticals: Mupirocin is also used in the pharmaceutical industry to formulate topical medications for the treatment of bacterial skin infections. Its mechanism of action and effectiveness make it a valuable ingredient in these formulations.
Storage
Conditions: Store in a cool and dry place.
