Polysporin Antibiotic Cream is a topical medication used for the treatment of minor skin infections, cuts, and burns. It works by containing a combination of antibiotics, typically polymyxin B sulfate and bacitracin, which are used to treat certain types of infections caused by bacteria.

Polymyxin B works by damaging the bacterial cell membrane, causing the cell to leak and eventually die. Bacitracin works by disrupting the cell membrane of bacteria, making it more permeable and leading to cell death. The combination of these antibiotics effectively treats and prevent infection in minor cuts, scrapes, and burns.

Apply 1 or 2 Polysporin antibiotic cream to the affected eye or ear, 4 times a day or more frequently as directed by your doctor.

To use Polysporin antibiotic cream, you should first clean the affected area with mild soap and water and dry it thoroughly. Then, apply a small amount of the cream to the affected area, usually 1 to 3 times daily or as directed by your healthcare provider. You should cover the area with a sterile bandage if it is located on an open wound or if instructed to do so by your healthcare provider. Avoid getting the cream in your eyes or mouth. If you have any concerns or questions about how to use Polysporin antibiotic cream, please consult with your healthcare provider for proper guidance.

Use Polysporin antibiotic cream exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
