Actions | Polymyxin B sulfate is an antibiotic that interferes with cell membrane stability, giving it bactericidal activity against Gram-negative bacteria. Miconazole is a synthetic imidazole derivative that interferes with fungal cell membrane and has good antifungal activity. Miconazole also has potent activity against Gram-positive bacteria. The combination of polymyxin B sulfate and miconazole nitrate has a synergistic effect on the activities, making them more effective against fungi and bacteria that are less sensitive to miconazole alone. Prednisolone is a glucocorticoid that has anti-inflammatory actions. |
