Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Mupirocin 200 mg/Vancomycin 50 mg Capsules are a specially compounded medication designed for use in nasal irrigation and nebulizer treatments. This unique formulation is primarily used to combat a range of bacterial infections, including but not limited to Staphylococcal Infections, Sinusitis, Rhinosinusitis, Otitis Media, and Bronchitis.

The active ingredients in this formulation are Mupirocin and Vancomycin, both of which are antibiotics. Mupirocin functions by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, while Vancomycin works by preventing bacteria from forming the necessary cell walls they need to survive and multiply. This dual-action approach enhances the effectiveness of the treatment.

These capsules are designed to be emptied and mixed with a saline solution for irrigation or nebulization as directed. This allows for targeted administration of the medication, ensuring that the antibiotics reach the affected areas directly.

It is crucial to understand that these capsules are not intended for oral consumption. They should never be swallowed, but instead used exclusively for nasal irrigation or nebulization as directed by a healthcare professional.

If you have any questions or concerns about this formulation or its usage, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
