@jnmy Best applied when you first notice sinus symptoms. For me, it’s a little crusting on the edge of my nostril. Apply with a Q-tip, separate tip for each nostril just inside the nose. Then I pinch my nose for about 20 seconds to make sure it gets distributed. It takes a few days to feel it working.

Ayr is also useful in keeping the nasal passages feeling good in between infections. Applied the same way as mupirocin. Ayr is OTC.

I would be afraid to use Mupirocin long term, glad it works for you. Before bed, I tilt head and spray Arm&Hammer Simply Saline Nasal Mist once into each nostril, gently sniff it up, and let sinuses drain. Also dab Ayr on both sides of the septum, not far back, to avoid drainage-induced nosebleeds. So far, so good.
