PER CURIAM:� Jamul Ratub El appeals his conviction for cocaine trafficking, arguing the trial court committed reversible error in denying his motion for a mistrial.� We affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities: �State v. George, 323 S.C. 496, 510, 476 S.E.2d 903, 912 (1996) (�No issue is preserved for appellate review if the objecting party accepts the [court�s] ruling and does not contemporaneously make an additional objection to the sufficiency of the curative charge or move for a mistrial.�); State v. Patterson, 337 S.C. 215, 226, 522 S.E.2d 845, 850 (Ct. App. 1999) (�[A] trial court�s curative instruction is considered to cure any error regarding improper testimony, a party must contemporaneously object to a curative instruction as insufficient or move for a mistrial to preserve an issue for review.�) (emphasis in original); State v. Johnson, 334 S.C. 78, 89-90, 512 S.E.2d 795, 801 (1999) (holding unless the accused is prejudiced, a curative instruction to disregard objectionable evidence is usually deemed to cure the error and admission of inadmissible testimony can be harmless error where the trial court properly admonished the jury to disregard the testimony); State v. White, 371 S.C. 439, 444, 639 S.E.2d 160, 162 (Ct. App. 2006) (recognizing a mistrial should only be granted in cases of manifest necessity and with the greatest caution for very plain and obvious reasons and should not be ordered in every case where incompetent evidence is received).�

AFFIRMED.

SHORT, THOMAS, and PIEPER, JJ., concur.
