About Jisporin Ointment
Jisporin Ointment is primarily used to treat bacterial skin infections. Jisporin Ointment is 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.
Jisporin Ointment is composed of three antibiotic medicines: Bacitracin, Neomycin, and Polymyxin B. Bacitracin is a bacteriostatic medicine that 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 on the cell membranes of gram-negative bacteria. This process of binding causes the loss of essential metabolites in bacteria. Together, Jisporin Ointment treats bacterial skin infections.
Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your infection. Common side effects of Jisporin 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 sensitive to Jisporin Ointment or other medications. Do not apply Jisporin 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 Jisporin Ointment. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before starting Jisporin Ointment.
