Oral antimicrobial treatment for active infection is commonly done with the use of mupirocin, linezolid, quinupristin, rifampicin or vancomyocin are possible treatments. [42] [43] Hand washing, sterilizing equipment and hygiene practices should be implemented to decrease the spread of Staphylococcus infections. [20] [43]
