Low Concentrations of Mupirocin in the Pharynx following Intranasal Application May Contribute to Mupirocin Resistance in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus

We describe a patient with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonizing the pharynx. The MIC of mupirocin was 0.25 μg/ml before treatment and increased after treatment to 8 μg/ml. Using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, we confirmed that the genotypes of MRSA that colonized the phar...
