Cinpro 2 % Ointment 5 GM

Cinpro 2 % Ointment 5 GM is an antibiotic medicine used to treat skin infections such as impetigo (red sores), folliculitis (infection in hair follicles), and furunculosis (boils). It works by killing the bacteria causing these infections, helping to relieve symptoms and promote healing.

• Before applying the ointment, ensure the affected skin area is clean and dry.
• Apply a small amount of the ointment to the infected area using your fingertip or a clean cotton swab.
• The ointment should be applied two to three times daily or as directed by your doctor.
• You can cover the treated area with a sterile gauze dressing if deemed necessary.
• Remember to wash your hands before and after applying the ointment to prevent spreading of the infection.

Cinpro 2 % Ointment 5 GM is applied topically.

Cinpro 2 % Ointment 5 GM contains mupirocin (2%), which works on the body in the following ways:

• Isoleucyl-tRNA Synthetase Inhibition: Mupirocin works by reversibly binding to an enzyme present in bacteria called isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase. This enzyme plays a crucial role in bacterial protein synthesis.
• Halting Protein Synthesis: By binding to the isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase, mupirocin interferes with the incorporation of a specific amino acid called isoleucine into bacterial proteins, effectively stopping protein synthesis.
• Killing Susceptible Bacteria: Due to its unique action, mupirocin exhibits bactericidal activity against susceptible bacteria at the concentrations reached after topical application.

• Store Cinpro 2 % Ointment 5 GM at room temperature, ideally between 15°C and 25°C

• Maintain good skin hygiene to help manage skin infections. This includes washing your skin regularly with mild soap, keeping it dry, and avoiding sharing towels or clothing.
