A member asked:
I'm allergic to penicillin. should i use polysporin (bacitracin and polymyxin) or neosporin for cuts and scrapes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Polysporin (bacitracin and polymyxin): That would be perfectly fine. There are no known problems with this, and polysporin (bacitracin and polymyxin) and neosporin are not penicillins.
