Nosramycin Eye Ointment 5 gm is composed of Bacitracin, Neomycin, and Polymyxin B. Bacitracin inhibits the synthesis of bacterial cell walls. Neomycin prevents the synthesis of essential proteins. Polymyxin B destroys bacterial membranes and causes the loss of essential metabolites in bacteria.

• Bacitracin is a bacteriostatic medicine (stops the growth or reproduction of bacteria) that works by inhibiting the 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 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, Nosramycin Eye Ointment 5 gm helps treat bacterial eye infections.

• Inform your doctor if you have had any allergic reactions to Nosramycin Eye Ointment 5 gm.
