Brief Answer:
Topical anti-bacterial ointment is available OTC.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for follow up query.

Topical anti-bacterial medication like Neosporin or Bactroban (Mupirocin) may be available over the counter.

However, if you need ORAL antibiotic medicine, you should consult with your treating doctor for complete prescription. It will be more worthwhile.

Hope, I have answered your query. Kindly, close the discussion.

All the best and good luck.
