BEG-I Nasal Spray
BEG-I Nasal Spray
Bactroban (Mupirocin), Edetate Disodium (EDTA), Gentamicin, and Itraconazole.
BEG-I is a compounded medication recommended by leading infectious disease experts for the treatment of biotoxin illnesses. BEG-I has been found to be particularly important in the treatment process for MARCoNS (Multiple Antibiotic Resistant Coagulase Negative Staph), a staph infection that settles deep in the nasal cavity. [26] The highly resistant pathogens of MARCoNS shelter themselves in a protective biofilm that is impenetrable with antibiotics alone.[27] Laboratory studies have shown topical antibiofilm treatment to be an effective option to combat antibiotic-resistant bacterial colonies. [28] This is a key step aiding in the recovery and healing process.

What’s in BEG-I Nasal Spray?
The active ingredients of BEG-I include two antibiotics- Bactroban (mupirocin) and Gentamicin, calcium chelator agent EDTA, and the antifungal agent Itraconazole. Topical antibiotics like Mupirocin have been widely used in the treatment of biofilm. [29] In a clinical trial on the efficacy of topical Bactroban (mupirocin) treatment in the sinuses of chronic sinusitis (CRS) patients, it was concluded that mupirocin could be useful in eliminating Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) biofilms present on the sinus mucosa of CRS patients and offer an additional treatment method for patients with recurring sinusitis. [30] EDTA works by breaking down the protective biofilm, allowing the antibiotics and antifungal to target the infected sinus cavity. [31] The I in BEG-I stands for Itraconazole, a powerful triazole antifungal agent often affiliated with the treatment of a range of fungal infections including chronic inflammatory response syndrome (CIRS). [32] Itraconazole works by hindering the formation of the fungal cell membrane. [33]
