Carolyn Ijmas is doing her spring cleaning. As she is arranging the content in her medicine cabinet, she notices that there a tube of bacitracin antibiotic ointment, about half-used. She wonders whether she should keep it or not and asks you, the nurse who lives next door, what she should do with the tube.
1. Should Carolyn keep the antibiotic ointment? What would you want to know before making a recommendation?
2. What would you teach Carolyn about the use of topical antibiotic ointments such as the bacitracin?
