She has medication called ketoconazole I don'/t want this to spread all over my home and her sister. should I change her sheets daily etc. HELP [/INST] Hi, Yes, Impetigo is contagious, primarily from direct contact with someone who has it. But sometimes from towels, toys, clothing, or household items. you need to start mupirocin topical ointment for 14 days and also oral antibiotic tab Amoxyclav, yes for 7 days. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. </s>
