Brief Answer:
Buy another antibiotic cream
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Since mupirocin is a prescription drug,you can get neosporin cream and start it's application twice daily over the affected areas. Neosporin is also a topical antibiotic cream and so it will help in treating the skin infection.
Make sure you wash the affected areas well and dry them before applying the medicine.
