How to Order:
Neomycin sulfate USP is a type of antibiotic that is commonly used to treat infections caused by bacteria. It belongs to the class of aminoglycoside antibiotics and is often prescribed for treatment of skin, eye, and intestinal infections. Neomycin can also be combined with other antibiotics for more effective treatment.
The USP (United States Pharmacopeia) designation indicates that the neomycin sulfate has met the compendial standards set by the U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention. This ensures that the neomycin sulfate meets specific quality, strength, purity, and dosage requirements.
As an API (active pharmaceutical ingredient), neomycin sulfate is the main active component in a medication. It is responsible for the therapeutic effect of the medication and is typically combined with other inactive ingredients to form a final medication product.
Neomycin works by inhibiting the production of proteins in bacteria, which ultimately leads to the death of the bacteria and clearance of the infection. It is a broad-spectrum antibiotic, meaning it can target a wide range of bacterial infections.
Neomycin sulfate USP is typically available in the form of tablets, creams, eye drops, and ointments for easy administration and can be obtained only with a prescription from a healthcare provider. It is important to use neomycin sulfate as directed by a healthcare professional and complete the full course of treatment to ensure effectiveness and prevent the development of antibiotic resistance.
