My pediatrician prescribed this for my 3 week old son and it worked like a charm. He had some rashes that were open skin and could not be cured with desitin, butt paste, aquaphor, or balmex. I apply it every other diaper change and it cleared it up within 1-2 days. Aquaphor was used like icing on a cake on the changes where bactroban was not used
