    D.06.A.X.09   Mupirocin

    Pharmacodynamics:

    Mechanism of action

    Mupirocin is a new antibiotic that is produced by fermentation Pseudomonas fluorescens. Mupirocin inhibits isoleucyl transfer-RNA synthetase by blocking protein synthesis in a bacterial cell.

    Due to the specific mechanism of action and the unique chemical structure mupirocin is not characterized by cross-resistance with other antibiotics used in clinical practice.

    With topical application in minimal suppressive concentrations (MIC) mupirocin has bacteriostatic, and at higher concentrations bactericidal properties.

    Pharmacodynamic effects

    Activity

    Mupirocin is an antibacterial agent for topical application that demonstrates in vivo activity againstStaphylococcus aureus (including methicillin-resistant strains), S.epidermidis and beta-hemolytic strainsStreptococcus species.

    Activity spectrum in vitro includes the following bacteria:

    Sensitive species:

    - Staphylococcus aureus1,2;

    - Staphylococcus epidermidis1,2;

    - coagulase-negative staphylococci1,2;

    - Streptococcus species1;

    - Haemophilus influenzae;

    - Neisseria gonorrhoeae;

    - Neisseria meningitidis;

    - Moraxella catarrhalis:

    - Pasteurella multocida.

    1 - Clinical efficacy demonstrated for isolates

    sensitive bacteria by registered clinical

    indications for use.

    2 - Including strains producing beta-lactamase and methicillin-

    resistant strains.

    Sustainable species

    - Corynebacterium species;

    - Enterobacteriaceae;

    - Gram-negative non-fermenting sticks;

    - Micrococcus species;

    - Anaerobes.

    Borderline concentration sensitivity to mupirocin (MIC) for Staphylococcus spp.

    Sensitive: less than or equal to 1 μg / ml.

    Intermediate sensitivity: 2 to 256 μg / ml.

    Stable: higher than 256 μg / ml.

    Mechanisms of resistance

    It was shown that a low level of resistance of staphylococci (MIC from 8 to 256 μg / ml) is due to changes in the native Enzyme isoleucyl transfer-RNA synthetase. It was shown that a high level of resistance of staphylococci (MIC is greater than or equal to 512 μg / ml) is due to a certain plasmid encoding of the enzyme isoleucyl transfer-RNA synthetase.The natural resistance of gram-negative bacteria, such as Enterobacteriaceae, may be due to a low level of penetration of the antibiotic into the bacterial cell.

    Pharmacokinetics:

    Suction

    Absorption of mupirocin through the damaged and healthy mucous membrane of the nose is insignificant (less than 1% of the applied dose is excreted in urine in the form of monic acid).

    Metabolism

    The drug is intended for topical use only. In case of absorption through the damaged skin mupirocin is rapidly metabolized to inactive monic acid.

    Excretion

    Mupirocin is rapidly excreted from the body by metabolic transformation into an inactive metabolite, monium acid, which is rapidly excreted by the kidneys.

    Indications:

    - Carrier of staphylococcal infections in the nasal cavity, including carriage Staphylococcus aureus (including methicillin-resistant strains);

    - prevention of infection Staphylococcus aureus patients on hemodialysis or continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis.

    Contraindications:

    - Hypersensitivity to mupirocin or any other component included in the formulation in anamnesis;

    - application of the drug in children under 12 years of age (safety and efficacy evaluation was not performed in children under 12 years of age, so the drug is not recommended for this age group).

    Pregnancy and lactation:

    There is no data on the use of the drug during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

    In animal studies, no signs of reproductive toxicity were found.

    However, as with the use of other drugs, the use of the drug Bactroban® during pregnancy and during breastfeeding is possible only if the intended benefit to the mother exceeds any potential risk to the fetus and the baby.

    Dosing and Administration:

    For intranasal use.

    Adults and children over 12 years of age

    To apply the ointment as an applicator, you should use a cotton swab.

    Apply a small amount of ointment volume approximately from the match head (approximately 30 mg of ointment) to the nasal mucosa in each nasal passage twice a day for 5 days.

    After applying the ointment, several times tighten the nose simultaneously from both sides, which ensures a uniform distribution of the ointment over the mucous membrane.

    Wash hands before and after applying the product.

    Usually nasal carriage disappears for 3-5 days of treatment. Do not use the drug for more than 5 days.

    Do not mix the drug with other medications to avoid dilution of the ointment and, therefore, reduce antibacterial activity or possible changes in the stability of mupirocin.

    Do not use the ointment left in the open tube at the end of treatment for the next course of treatment.

    Special patient groups

    Children over 12 years old

    Correction of the dose is not required.

    Elderly patients

    Correction of the dose is not required.

    Patients with impaired renal function

    Correction of the dose is not required.

    Patients with impaired hepatic function

    Correction of the dose is not required.

    Side effects:

    The undesirable reactions presented below are listed in accordance with the damage to organs and organ systems and frequency of occurrence. Frequency of occurrence is defined as follows: Often (≥ 1/10), often (≥ 1/100 and <1/10), infrequently (≥ 1/1 000 and <1/100), rarely (≥ 1/10 000 and <1/1 000), rarely (<1/10 000), including individual cases.

    Frequency categories were formed on the basis of clinical studies of the drug and postgistrational observation.

    The prevalence of infrequent adverse reactions was established on the basis of generalized data on the safety of the drug, obtained during 12 clinical trials involving 422 patients.

    The prevalence of very rare undesirable reactions was determined mainly on the basis of post-registration data and therefore is the frequency of reports of such reactions, rather than the true frequency of occurrence of these reactions.

    Frequency of occurrence of undesirable reactions

    Immune system disorders

    Very rarely: local reactions of hypersensitivity, systemic allergic reactions (including anaphylaxis, generalized rash, hives and angioedema).

    Disturbances from the respiratory system, chest and mediastinal organs

    Infrequently: reactions from the mucous membrane of the nose (itching, redness, burning, tingling).

    Overdose:

    Symptoms

    At the moment, there are limited data on overdose of mupirocin.

    Treatment

    Specific treatment for overdose with mupirocin is absent. In case of an overdose, supportive therapy and appropriate patient control are indicated, if necessary.

    Interaction:

    No interaction with other drugs was noted.

    Special instructions:

    The drug is not intended for use in ophthalmic practice.

    Avoid getting ointment in the eyes. In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water until the remnants of the ointment are completely removed.

    In rare cases, the use of the drug may cause a reaction of increased sensitivity or severe local irritation. In this case, it is required to stop treatment, if possible, remove the drug from the mucosa and prescribe an alternative therapy for the infection.

    As with other antibacterial drugs, with prolonged use of mupirocin, there is a risk of excessive growth of insensitive microorganisms.

    With the use of antibiotics, cases of pseudomembranous colitis have been described, the severity of which can vary from mild to life-threatening.Thus, it is important to consider the possibility of such a diagnosis in patients with diarrhea on the background or after the use of antibiotics. Although the probability of developing this phenomenon with local application of mupirocin is less, in case of prolonged or severe diarrhea or abdominal cramps, treatment should be stopped immediately and an additional examination of the patient should be carried out.
