Neomycin Sulphate 350Mg Cream

Neomycin Sulphate 350Mg Cream is used orally to prepare GI tract for surgery. When applied topically, it is used to treat minor skin infections. The primary use of this medicine is to treat diarrhoea caused by E. coli. It is also used as an adjunct in the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy.

Used to reduce bacteria in the intestines, Neomycin Sulphate 350Mg Cream is an aminoglycoside antibiotic. It works by destroying sensitive bacteria by cutting off the production of certain proteins needed for them to survive. Keeping this in mind, it is used to stave off the risk of infections during intestinal surgeries. It can also be used along with a certain diet to treat hepatic encephalopathy.

Neomycin Sulphate 350Mg Cream is not to be used if you are allergic to any of its ingredients or to other aminoglycosides such as gentamicin. If you have bowel ulcers, inflammatory bowel disease or any intestinal obstruction, the drug is not advised to be taken. Medicines like penicillin and fludarabine and can interfere with its functioning.

Neomycin Sulphate 350Mg Cream is to be taken orally with or without food. Do not use it for more than two weeks unless advised by your doctor. Continue using it for the full course of treatment to clear off the infection, even if you feel better.

To keep away any side effects, it may be taken at the lowest possible dosage and for the shortest period. Some of the side effects include stomach cramps, severe diarrhea, nausea and bloody stool.

Symptoms of overdose (rare due to poor oral bioavailability) include ototoxicity, nephrotoxicity, and neuromuscular toxicity. The treatment of choice following a single acute overdose appears to be the maintenance of good urine output of at least 3 mL/kg/hour.

Dialysis is of questionable value in the enhancement of aminoglycoside elimination. If required, hemodialysis is preferred over peritoneal dialysis in patients with normal renal function. Chelation with penicillin may be of benefit.
