Aggregated GHS information provided per 4 reports by companies from 4 notifications to the ECHA C&L Inventory. Each notification may be associated with multiple companies.

Currently, no available study or report suggests that using topical mupirocin consistently causes systemic toxicity. As previously stated, caution is advised in individuals with severe renal impairment and those with large open wounds due to the potential for increased absorption and nephrotoxicity. In such cases, renal function should be closely monitored with scheduled renal function panels, as stated in the FDA guidelines for Bactroban.

Mupirocin is reported to be active against susceptible aerobic gram-positive cocci, such as _Staphylococcus aureus_, _Staphylococcus epidermidis_, and other beta-hemolytic streptococci_Streptococcus pyogenes_. It mediates its antibacterial activity by inhibiting the bacterial protein synthesis and formation of bacterial proteins essential for survival. The minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) against relevant pathogens is generally eight-fold to thirty-fold higher than the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). In one clinical study investigating the therapeutic effectiveness of topical mupirocin in impetigo, the therapeutic response rate was about 94 to 98% after one week following the end of therapy. In clinical studies of patients with primary and secondary skin infections, both elimination of the bacterial pathogen and clinical cure or improvement hav been demonstrated in over 90% of patients receiving topical mupirocin. Mupirocin resistance as high as 81% has been reported previously. Resistance to mupirocin, which occurs more frequently in methicillin-resistant than methicillin-susceptible staphylococci, may occur with the production of a modified isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, or the acquisition of, by genetic transfer, a plasmid mediating a new isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase.

Mupirocin specifically and reversibly binds to bacterial isoleucyl transfer-RNA (tRNA) synthetase, which is an enzyme that promotes the conversion of isoleucine and tRNA to isoleucyl-tRNA. Inhibition of this enzyme subsequently leads to the inhibition of the bacterial protein and RNA synthesis. Mupirocin is bacteriostatic at lower concentrations but it exerts bactericidal effects with prolonged exposure, killing 90-99% of susceptible bacteria over a 24 hour period.

MUPIROCIN

Established Pharmacologic Class [EPC] - RNA Synthetase Inhibitor Antibacterial

Mechanisms of Action [MoA] - RNA Synthetase Inhibitors

Mupirocin is a RNA Synthetase Inhibitor Antibacterial. The mechanism of action of mupirocin is as a RNA Synthetase Inhibitor.

MUPIROCIN

Compounds which inhibit the synthesis of proteins. They are usually ANTI-BACTERIAL AGENTS or toxins. Mechanism of the action of inhibition includes the interruption of peptide-chain elongation, the blocking the A site of ribosomes, the misreading of the genetic code or the prevention of the attachment of oligosaccharide side chains to glycoproteins.

Substances that inhibit the growth or reproduction of BACTERIA.

Systemic or percutaneous absorption of mupirocin following dermal application is expected to be minimal in adults and children. Occlusive dressings do not significantly enhance drug absorption, but damaged skin may allow enhanced penetration of the drug across the skin barrier.

Any mupirocin reaching the systemic circulation is rapidly metabolized to form the inactive monic acid, which is eliminated by renal excretion. Following the application of Centany (mupirocin ointment),2% to a 400 cm2 area on the back of 23 healthy volunteers once daily for 7 days, the mean (range) cumulative urinary excretion of monic acid over 24 hrs following the last administration was 1.25% (0.2% to 3.0%) of the administered dose of mupirocin.
