How Zosporin Powder Works:

Zosporin Powder is an antibiotic powder for wounds that combines three effective ingredients: Neomycin, Bacitracin, and Sulphacetamide Sodium. Neomycin powder uses include stopping bacterial growth by interfering with protein production in harmful bacteria. Bacitracin powder works by damaging bacterial cell walls, preventing bacteria from multiplying. Sulphacetamide Sodium blocks folic acid synthesis, which bacteria need to survive. Together, these ingredients help control infection, reduce redness, swelling, and itching, and protect the affected area. This triple-action formula allows wounds, cuts, and minor skin infections to heal faster while keeping the skin clean and infection-free.

Side Effects of Zosporin Powder

• Slight redness or irritation where the product is applied.
• Itching or a burning sensation after applying the powder
• Dryness or flaking of the skin
• Rarely, allergic reactions like rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing
