I had a slight mrsa infection over the summer and for the most part, neosporin did help clear it up.

Does neosporin ointment work on staph infection?
Neosporin can be effective against staph. It is able to kill Staphylococcus aureus (methicillin-sensitive strains, MSSA), Staphylococcus epidermidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Streptococcus pyogenes Anaerobic streptococcus. Neosporin is not able to kill certain strains of Staphylococcus aureus such as strains with methicillin-resistance (MRSA). For anything other than a minor wound, you should consult with your doctor. Neosporin is better at preventing a staph infection than curing it. If you have an active, infected wound putting neosporin (or any similar product) can actually be counter-productive, since it prevents the area from draining. Staph is very serious, and by the time you know you have a staph infection, it may be too late for neosporin alone to be effective.
Medicines used to kill bacteria and other microorganism?
The medicines used to kill bacteria are generally called antibiotics. Penicillin is a typical famous example.
What is antibiotic resistant bacteria?
Also known as "superbugs", antibiotic resistant bacteria have evolved to a point that our usual antibiotics won't kill them. VRE and MRSA are common forms of antibiotic resistant bacteria.

MRSA mutation process?
Bacteria have the ability to mutate and become resistant to elements that are attempting to destroy them, such as antibiotics. As a result of abuse and overuse of antibiotics, there are not antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria such as MRSA and VRE. Even though antibiotics have become less effective in destroying these mutated superbugs, Manuka Honey is not being used to kill MRSA and effectively treat Staph infections.
Is MRSA terminal?
MRSA is a serious staph bacterial infection. Referred to as the "flesh eating bacteria", it can cause such severe skin and tissue infection that surgeons must cut off a patient's hands, feet, or whole limbs to stop the advancing infection. In the worst cases, MRSA can kill.

Which bit of MRSA mutates?
Bacteria have the ability to mutate and become resistant to elements that are attempting to destroy them, such as antibiotics.
