Is Azitromicina the correct antibiotic for an ear infection? ## i had ear discharge . doc told me to have T.infectum and signoflam and and neosporin ointment . please tell me each' s function . and pharmacist gave me ampilox instead of t . infectum saying it is also antibacterial . ## Yes, it is a commonly prescribed antibiotic for treating ear infections. There's a study [1] which points to its effectiveness with even a single dose, and you usually don't have to take it as long as a penicillin antibiotic.

Bacitracin + Polymyxin B

Bacitracin/polymyxin B (trade name Polysporin among others) is a topical antibiotic cream or ointment.[1] The active ingredients are polymyxin B, bacitracin and occasionally garamycin or gramicidin. Though Polysporin is marketed in the United States, it holds a much smaller market share than in Canada and acts as a substitute to J&J's Neosporin for those allergic to the antibiotic neomycin; although allergy to Bacitracin/Polymyxin B has also been reported.[2&#9...

Please, I would love to know where I may buy Mycitracin? NOT Neosporin, but Mycitracin. ## Mycitracin is used in the prevention of infection and speeding the healing of wounds. From what I was able to gather this has to be prescribed by a doctor. Do you have any more questions or information to add? Please post back if you do. ## Crtstal- Thank You, I will ask my doctor. ## Hooey. It's an OTC ointment. If it now requires a prescription, it's just JJ wracheting up consumer costs needlessly. Used to be available at Walgreens and Eckerd and a most stores with first aid sections. I'm looking too, so if you find it, please let me know. ## yes please let me know as well I am a diebetic and this stuff works wonders with sores of all types and sizes luckly I just found an almost ful...

I have a very small tattoo that is infected ...I was wondering if ampicillin can help it ## Hi Black pearl, u can't just use any type of antibiotic 4 any infection. It takes certain antibiotics 2 take care of different infections. Besides, u need 2 start a new round of antibiotics 4 a certain amount of days. Only a doctor would know what kind u need and. 4 how long. I used neosporin when I got my tatoo . It's an OTC first aid antibiotic cream. U can get it at any pharmacy or Walmart. Hope it gets better. Let me know how u make out. ## I really think Cats68 is on the right track here, usually a topical ointment is best, because a tattoo doesn't go deep in the body and usually doesn't require a systemic antibiotic. Are you sure it's infected and not just irritated and ...

I cut myself with a clean knife and have some penicilina - v 800,000 U tablets. How much should I take a day to prevent infection? ## In regards to this, though it's an old post, I'm going to add another one of my important PSAs for anyone seeking similar information. The improper use of antibiotics carries the risk of causing antibiotic resistance, which could be very dangerous in the event that you get a real infection that requires treatment. Thus, it is not advisable to try to self-diagnose, self-treat, or try to dose yourself to prevent an infection. Most cuts, scrapes and etc. that are minor in nature will heal on their own in a short period of time. There are over the counter topical antibiotic ointments you can use, such as Neosporin and the generic equivalents, if you&#...
