How Intasporin Products work
Sulphacetamide + Neomycin + Bacitracin is a combination of three antibiotics: Sulphacetamide + Neomycin + Bacitracin1, Sulphacetamide + Neomycin + Bacitracin2 and Sulphacetamide + Neomycin + Bacitracin3. Sulphacetamide + Neomycin + Bacitracin1 stops bacteria from producing folic acid, a nutrient required for bacterial multiplication. Sulphacetamide + Neomycin + Bacitracin2 stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by the bacteria to carry out vital functions. Sulphacetamide + Neomycin + Bacitracin3 works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering, thereby killing the bacteria. Together, they treat your infection effectively.
