⚠️ Always consult a registered physician before taking any medicine.
Pharmacology
This cream combines Neomycin, Polymyxin B and Pramoxine HCl. Neomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that kills many gram-positive and gram-negative organisms. It works by binding with ribosomal RNA, which causes the bacterial genetic code to be misread and stops protein synthesis.
Polymyxin B is also bactericidal, and it acts on several gram-negative organisms. It interacts with the phospholipid components of the bacterial cell membrane and so increases the membrane's permeability.
Pramoxine is an external analgesic. It gives temporary relief from pain or discomfort.
Pregnancy & Breastfeeding
Neomycin, Polymyxin B and Pramoxine HCl should be used in pregnancy only when the likely benefit is greater than the possible risk to the baby. Nobody knows yet whether this medicine passes into breast milk, so a nursing mother should be careful when applying Nepranol.
⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
