There are insufficient data at this time to establish that this
product is safe and effective as part of an intervention
program to prevent autoinfection of high-risk patients from their own
nasal colonization with _Staphylococcus aureus_
_(S. aureus)_.
There are insufficient data at this time to recommend use of BACTROBAN
nasal ointment for general prophylaxis of
any infection in any patient population.

After application, close the nostrils by pressing together and
releasing the sides of the nose repetitively for
