• Neosporin Dusting Powder is composed of three antibiotic medicines, namely Bacitracin, Neomycin, and Polymyxin B.
• 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, Neosporin Dusting Powder treats bacterial skin infections.
