What Are The Possible Side Effects Of Neosporin?

Hi, can I answer your health question? Please type your question here...hello sir, I got my nail and finger tip injured. I went to physician and he removed my nail from nail bed and wrote for me antibiotocs cefgu 500 and asked me to dress it alternatively. I did it with beta dine. Last week he wrote me an ointment, moganano, which I could not find from medical store. I researched on internet and found neosporin as good for healing. I want to ask is neosporin good for healing and one morw doubt is that when after applying neosporin when I cleaned it with h2o2 bubbles come out. It has made me fearful. Please help

Hi, I really appreciate your concern as you think that the wound might have been infected. Your physician might have suggested you to take the Meganano ointment (Nanocrystalline silver 0.002 %W/W) on the grounds that your would may have healed good.
So further to help the healing process he would have prescribed the ointment. Although Neosporine is a good ointment, I would recommend you to continue using the Meganano ointment as your infection is already covered with oral antibiotic course.
Also, dont worry about H2O2 bubbles which are commonplace while cleaning the wound. Hope I have answered your questions thoroughly. Feel free to ask any further question. Have a nice day.

Regards,
Dr.Abhijeet
