Impetigo is a highly contagious bacterial skin infection, common in children but also affecting adults. It often appears as red sores or blisters that burst and form a yellowish crust, usually around the mouth, nose, or hands. While impetigo may look concerning, it’s generally easy to treat with the right medication.
Through the Pharmacy First treatment scheme, our pharmacists can recommend over-the-counter treatments or advise whether you need a prescription for an antibiotic cream or ointment. It’s important to treat impetigo promptly to prevent it from spreading to others or worsening.
