Well.........I've been using a variation.
15 g. betamethasone 0.1% ointment
15 g. nystatin ointment (100,000 u)
22.5 g. mupirocin ointment (size it comes in in US)
I give the moms a clean urine cup, tell her to squezze them all in, stir
well and use sparingly. (also works on diaper rash :-)
I deal with an inner city population, many on medicaid or limited Rx plans.
They can't afford the compunding pharmacy rates :-( also transportation is
limited to get around, so they usually go to chains. (Chains throw up their
hands in horror when I write it Dr. Jack's way.)
Someone else has mentioned on Lactnet that mupirocin seems to work OK by
itself. Maybe the slight differences in grams makes the mupirocin more
effective. I don't know, but it works. I've been chicken to try mupirocin
solo. Pat in SNJ (APN,C - I can write Rxs.)
