User questions & answers

Question:	Can this neosporin cream be used as an underarm deodorant ? thank you
Answer:	This is only my opinion, but you "can," do so. However, "should you," no. Way to expensive, and would only impact "bacterial organisms," susceptible to the ingredients of this cream. A good deodorant I have used to good effect that is all natural, and non-staining is Thai deodorant stone, Deodorant Stones of America: Thai Crystal Deodorant. There is also spray or roll-on. The Stone lasts for months of use, available here on Amazon.
Question:	Is this the white cream kind
Answer:	yes it is white
Question:	Can be use on my armpits
Answer:	Yes, just so long that you're not allergic to it.
Question:	Is this a cream or ointment
Answer:	It is a white cream not like ointment at all. I have ordered this before and like the cream as it rubs in nicely and it’s not as messy as ointment. It says cream right on the box.

User questions & answers

Question:	expiration date, made in
Answer:	EXP: 03/2022
Question:	does it help heal bed sores
Answer:	Yes this is great stuff for bed sores. Depending on how big the sites are you may also need butterfly stitches. I had a sore that wouldn’t close as Neosporin kept infection at bay. 2 stitches places over sore while using Neosporin healed the wound in 2 days.
Question:	What year did this come out
Answer:	As a general, total item, Neomycin was discovered in 1949. As a tube of Neosporin, the EXPIRATION date is imprinted on the Bottom of the tube. The manufacture date is irrelevant as it is assumed you are buying a 'new' product, and should be rotating your personal stock / supply. The tube I purchased expires March 2022.
Question:	Hello!!! Is there a significant difference between this and the one that is just pain relief
Answer:	There is neosporin ointment which is very greasy but good. There is neosporin white crème which is very good. About the pain relief it depends how sore "your sore is". Sometimes it does the job for pain. Overall, neosporin ointment whether crème or greasy is very good stuff. Hope this helps.

User questions & answers

Question:	Why doesn't the cap stay on
Answer:	Someone along the way thought it would be good idea to change from the cap in the picture ,that worked fine, to the childproof style that doesn't stay on at all. I kept a cap from Neosporin and use that on the Brave Soldier.
Question:	How do you close the cap? It's 2 pieces & I pressed down the outer cap to engage the inner cap to unscrew & open, but now I can't seem to close it
Answer:	The cap on the tube I have does not come apart into 2 pieces, and I think the cap on the tube you have should not have done so. All I can suggest is to try to screw the inner cap on by itself and see if that works.
Question:	How long will this last in a first aid kit? A year or
Answer:	Yes I would say 2 yrs minimum
Question:	What is the percentage of Lidocaine in this
Answer:	It' 3.5% lidocaine.
