Polysporin First Aid Topical Antibiotic Ointment, Travel Size, 0.5 oz

I was providing care for a client during a difficult time. The wound care specialist couldn't get the order in the facility in time before running out of what was on hand . . I made a trip to Walmart for this product for the healing process to continue without delay . The wound needed adherence protection continuously . Plus making sure the cap was tightly replaced each time for proper protection was an absolute plus when using this item !! Thank you Walmart for carrying this product in a great time of need .

Not much to say other than that Polysporin has been the gold standard for OTC topical antibiotic creams %26 ointments for years — and for my money, it's still the best . Feels soothing going on, does the job to help prevent infection and speed healing, and is non-irritating to sensitive skin. I've used it for years and given the choice, wouldn't use anything else. That's why I always keep some on hand.

My 21-month-old is an active toddler, and this has been really helpful. It's the perfect travel size—small enough to carry everywhere without taking up space. It goes on smoothly, doesn't seem to sting, and I like that it helps protect minor cuts and scrapes from getting irritated. I've noticed my child's little “booboos” seem to heal pretty quickly when I use this regularly.

I have to take meds that make my skin very easy to tear, just touching something can cause a skin tear and these large band-ads are easy to use and easy on the skin and they stick and will not tear your skin when take you them off. I love them

This was recommended by my dermatologist after he excised a lipoma. I healed fairly well, so I'll guess it did the trick. The consistency is similar to any antibiotic ointment, but not as greasy or thick as Vaseline.

I've been a Neosporin user for many, many years. However … following a recent minor surgical procedure, my surgeon VERY STRONGLY suggested that I use Polysporin rather than Neosporin to address my need for N antibiotic ointment … the reason being that when one of the three active ingredients of Neosporin is used on bare skin OUTSIDE an “open wound” area, the effect can sometimes be sufficiently harsh as to inflame (to some degree) the bare skin with which it comes in contact. Indeed … the surgeon's actual words were “Do NOT use Neosporin” (nor its store-brand equivalents).

Polysporin Ointment helps all my cuts, or cat / dog scratches, faster than anything I have used. Cover with a bandaid %26 helps heal so quickly I can basically stop bandaging after a couple days. Better than triple antibiotic due to irritation from that third ingredient neomycin. So as a former pharmacist I just stick with Polysporin.

I am 85 years and I have used this more than forty years. I have never never been disappointed My plastic surgeon suggested this and when had server brown spots n growth removed

Had some minor leg scratches that needed healing. I tried this ointment out compared to Neosporin and it worked pretty well.

What I didn't like was being CHARGED MORE than the original amount. I can't order from WalMart anymore because this is NOT the first time this has happened. Deceitful and dishonest.
