About Nebazine Ointment
Nebazine Ointment is primarily used as a first-aid antibiotic to prevent infections in minor cuts, scrapes, or burns on the skin. Bacterial skin infection occurs when bacteria penetrate through hair follicles or the broken skin and cause infection.
Nebazine Ointment is composed of Bacitracin, Neomycin, and Polymyxin B. Bacitracin works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. Neomycin prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Polymyxin B destroys the bacterial membranes by binding to the phospholipids, thus treating bacterial skin infections.
Common side effects of Nebazine Ointment include itching, skin irritation, rash, redness, and swelling at the application site. These side effects may not occur in every patient using this medication and differ individually. If the side effects persist longer or worsen, please seek a doctor's advice.
Inform your doctor if you are allergic to Nebazine Ointment or other medications. Do not apply Nebazine Ointment on deep puncture wounds, serious burns, deep cuts or an animal bite. Let your doctor know if you have viral or fungal skin infections, chronic ear infections, and ruptured ear drum before using Nebazine Ointment. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before starting Nebazine Ointment.

- Bacitracin is a bacteriostatic medicine (that stops the growth or reproduction of bacteria). It works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis.
- Neomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic and prevents the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions.
- Polymyxin B, an antibiotic, destroys the bacterial membrane by binding to the phospholipids on the cell membranes of gram-negative bacteria.
- This process of binding causes the loss of essential metabolites in bacteria. Together, Nebazine Ointment treats bacterial skin infections.
