💡 Quick Answer — What is Flutibact Ointment?
Flutibact Ointment contains fluticasone propionate 0.005% + mupirocin 2% — a topical corticosteroid + topical antibiotic combination for inflamed bacterial skin infections (impetiginised eczema, infected dermatitis, infected wounds). Apply a thin layer twice daily for 7–14 days. If no improvement at 7 days, reassess. Combination therapy is appropriate only when both inflammation and infection are present; use single-agent therapy where one component is sufficient.

What Flutibact Ointment is and how it works
Flutibact Ointment contains fluticasone propionate 0.005% + mupirocin 2%. Fluticasone is a potent topical corticosteroid that suppresses inflammation. Mupirocin is a topical antibiotic that inhibits bacterial isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, effective against most staphylococci and streptococci including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Mupirocin is preferred over older topical antibiotics (neomycin, gentamicin) because of its narrow spectrum, low resistance rate, and good MRSA coverage. Manufacturer: GSK (WHO-GMP certified).
Показания
- Infected eczema with crusting, oozing, or impetiginisation.
- Infected dermatitis — atopic, contact, or seborrhoeic with secondary bacterial colonisation.
- Folliculitis with significant inflammation.
- Impetigo superimposed on inflamed skin.
Как да кандидатствате
- Wash hands. Apply a thin layer to affected skin twice daily.
- Course: 7–14 days. Reassess at 7 days; if no improvement, swab for culture and review the diagnosis.
- Avoid face (perioral dermatitis, rosacea risk) and skin folds without guidance.
- Do not use occlusive dressings.
- Limit to small body areas; total weekly amount should not exceed 50 g in adults.
⚠️ Antibiotic stewardship — Mupirocin resistance increases with prolonged or repeated use. Limit courses to 14 days and avoid prophylactic use. For non-inflamed bacterial skin infection, single-agent topical antibiotic is preferred. For MRSA decolonisation, follow institutional protocols (typically 5-day BD nasal regimen).

Често задавани въпроси
When should I use Flutibact Ointment rather than a single-agent product?
When inflammation AND bacterial infection are both clinically present. For uninfected eczema, a steroid alone is sufficient. For uninflamed bacterial infection (impetigo, folliculitis), a topical antibiotic alone is appropriate. Combination therapy is for the overlap.
How long until I see improvement?
Reduction in redness, oozing, and crusting within 3–7 days; full resolution by 10–14 days. If no improvement at 7 days, swab for culture.
Can I use Flutibact Ointment on my face?
Use with caution — the steroid component can cause perioral dermatitis and rosacea, and the antibiotic can sensitise. Prefer a milder steroid + single antibiotic for facial use, under specialist guidance.
Is Flutibact Ointment safe in pregnancy?
Use only when clinically necessary, on small areas, for short durations. Mupirocin has minimal systemic absorption. Discuss with prescriber.
What if the rash returns after treatment?
Recurrent infection often signals an underlying skin barrier problem (eczema, dermatitis). Treat the underlying condition with appropriate non-antibiotic therapy and reserve topical antibiotics for confirmed infection.
Can I use Flutibact Ointment for acne?
No — combinations of steroid + antibiotic worsen acne in the long run via steroid-induced rosacea and antibiotic resistance.
Is resistance a real concern?
Yes. Mupirocin resistance is rising in MRSA decolonisation programmes; reserve mupirocin for clinical infection rather than prophylaxis.
Should I cover the area?
No — occlusion multiplies steroid absorption and increases atrophy and HPA-suppression risk. Leave open to air.
How much should I use per application?
A thin film — pea-sized for a small lesion, fingertip unit for a hand-sized area.
Can I use it on broken skin?
Limited use on small breaks is acceptable; avoid extensive use on ulcers or open wounds (systemic absorption risk).
