Finding a suitable Fucidin alternative often involves comparing costs and stock levels. Generic mupirocin ointments are generally cheaper than branded Fucidin. Check your local pharmacy’s website or call to confirm pricing and availability; prices vary regionally. Online pharmacies offer broader selection, but verify their legitimacy before purchasing. Consider factors such as quantity and dosage form (ointment, cream) when comparing prices. Larger quantities usually offer cost savings per unit.
Other Treatment Options
Beyond mupirocin, Bactroban (another mupirocin brand) is readily available, but pricing varies. Your physician may prescribe alternative topical antibiotics like fusidic acid cream (if available without brand restrictions) or oral antibiotics for more severe infections. Expect higher costs for brand-name medications and prescription treatments compared to over-the-counter generics. Consult your doctor to explore suitable and affordable options for your specific needs.
