CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Colistin sulfate is a polypeptide antibiotic which penetrates into and
disrupts the bacterial cell
membrane. Neomycin sulfate is an aminoglycoside antibiotic which
inhibits protein synthesis, disrupting
the normal cycle of ribosomal function. Hydrocortisone acetate is a
corticosteroid hormone which is
thought to act by regulating the rate of protein synthesis; it
controls inflammation, edema, pruritus and
other dermal reactions. Cortiscosteroids suppress the inflammatory
response to a variety of agents and
they may delay healing. Since corticoids may inhibit the
