<h4>Background</h4> Colonization with Staphylococcus aureus is a risk factor for subsequent infection. Decolonization with the topical antibiotic mupirocin is effective and reduces the risk of subsequent S. aureus infection for both methicillin-sensitive (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant (MRSA) strains but may select for mupirocin-resistant isolates. <h4>Methods</h4> We characterized oxacillin and mupirocin su...
