MP-Sure Cream is a novel topical antibiotic used to treat skin infection 'impetigo' caused by bacteria, namely Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes. A bacterial infection is a condition in which bacteria grow in the body and cause infection. It can target any body part and multiple very quickly.
MP-Sure Cream works by stopping the production of proteins needed for bacterial surveillance. It is also active against Gram-negative organisms such as Escherichia coli and Haemophilus influenza. However, it is not effective against fungal or viral infections and should not be applied to burnt skin areas and open-cut wounds.
MP-Sure Cream should only be used if your doctor advises you to do so. It is not recommended for children below 2 months of age. MP-Sure Cream should be used for skin only, and if it accidentally gets into your eye, mouth, or nose, rinse with water. MP-Sure Cream should be applied to the affected area with a piece of clean cotton wool or gauze swab. MP-Sure Cream should not be applied more than the recommended dose, to avoid unpleasant side effects. Also, the course should be completed even if you feel better, as it is an antibiotic. Some common side effects of MP-Sure Cream are burning, itching, redness, stinging and dryness on your skin in the place where MP-Sure Cream is applied. Sensitive allergic reactions (skin hypersensitivity reactions) like rashes, itching, swelling, and shortness of breath can occur in rare cases. Please consult your doctor if an allergic reaction becomes severe.
Tell your doctor if you are known to be allergic to MP-Sure Cream or any other medicines. It is not known whether MP-Sure Cream harms the baby or passes into breast milk. It is better to contact a doctor before using MP-Sure Cream during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
