Hi All,

 

I recommend to my clients to use Polysporin - not Neosporin.  My son's
dermatologist (who removed my son's large nevus sebaceous 2 yrs ago and
concurred with the information I had heard but cannot remember where I heard
it) also does not recommend Neosporin for his clients either - reason?
According to him there is an increase in allergic reactions or sensitivity
to the neomycin in the triple-antibiotic ointments.  Polysporin is a double
antibiotic ointment and does not have the neomycin and also does not have
the reputation of allergic response.

 

Just thought I'd toss that out there.

 

Warmly,

Jaye
