Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This is a double, not triple, antibiotic because it doesn't contain neomycin. Much better alternative than neosporin as many are allergic to that. The trick is to dispense it cleanly on a cotton ball to keep the medicine in the tube clean and safe fro...  Read More

The single pack is a good value, the 2 pack is even better. Fast shipping, though. A good value. Just what the bf wants.

We find it speeds healing. Therfore, no nails digging at it resulting in a well healed deep scratch. And my cut did not get infected.



Cons

I’m not sure about the legality of them calling it polysporin in the title when it’s a generic version. The active ingredient is the same.

Therfore, no nails digging at it resulting in a well healed deep scratch.


This is a double, not triple, antibiotic because it doesn't contain neomycin which apparently some people (not me) are allergic to.

Price


This is a reasonable first aid topical at a very nice price point.


It is more economical than some, though not the cheapest.

Shipping


This arrived just in time for a horse riding birthday and it was applied to a couple abrasions with no reaction.


On the day this arrived i was able to put it to use when my parrot decided to bite me.


The tube i received in june 2018 has a expiration date of may 2020, so it has a decent shelf life.

Competitiveness


This works similar to any bacitracin based antibiotic cream.


Much better alternative than neosporin as many are allergic to that.


It is not clear from the description, at least to me, that this is not a polysporin brand.


This is the same formulation as polysporin, with the same active ingredients (bacitracin 500 units and polymyxin b 10,000 units).
