Neomycin Cream 10gm

Neomycin Cream is used to treat bacterial skin infections such as impetigo, infected wounds, boils and folliculitis, helping control bacterial growth and support faster healing in adults and children.

Uses of Neomycin Cream are:

• Bacterial Skin Infections: Treats infections such as impetigo, boils and folliculitis.
• Infected Wounds: Helps control bacterial growth in infected cuts, burns and ulcers.
• Infection Control: Stops susceptible bacterial growth; it does not directly speed tissue healing.

• Wash your hands before applying the cream to prevent any additional infection.
• Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area.
• Rub it gently into your skin until fully absorbed.
• Follow this process as directed by your doctor.
• Make sure you wash your hands after application as well.

Neomycin Cream is applied topically.

Neomycin Cream contains neomycin (5 %) which works in the following ways:

• Binds to 30S ribosomal subunit: Neomycin binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit within susceptible bacteria. This is a part of the bacteria's machinery that makes proteins.
• Inhibits protein synthesis: By binding to this subunit, neomycin inhibits the process of protein synthesis within the bacterium. Proteins are essential for many functions within bacterial cells.
• Leads to bacterial cell death: The inhibition of protein synthesis eventually causes the bacterial cell to die. This means that neomycin doesn't just slow down bacterial growth—it actively kills off the bacteria causing your infection.

• Store Neomycin Cream at a cool room temperature.
• Avoid exposure to excessive light and moisture to maintain the cream's effectiveness.
• Always keep the cream in its original, tightly sealed container.
• Keep this medicine out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion.
• Use your cream before its expiry date for optimum results.

• If you're using Neomycin Cream for a skin infection, maintaining proper hygiene is crucial. Clean the affected area with a mild soap and pat dry gently before applying the cream.
• Allow your skin to breathe by wearing loose, cotton clothes. Tight clothing may rub against the infected area, causing irritation and potentially worsening your condition.
