Mycitracin Plus Pain Reliever Chemical Information

pramoxine hydrochloride - The hydrochloride salt form of pramoxine, a morpholine derivative with local anesthetic property. Pramoxine hydrochloride decreases the permeability of the neuronal membrane to sodium ions by reversibly binding to and inhibiting voltage-gated sodium channels. This results in stabilization of the membrane and , thereby inhibiting the ionic fluxes required for membrane depolarization, hence resulting in the failure to initiate a propagated action potential and subsequent conduction blockade.

bacitracin zinc - The zinc salt form of bacitracin, a complex of cyclic polypeptide antibiotics, mainly bacitracin A, produced by spore-forming organisms belonging to the licheniformin group of the Bacillus subtilis with antibacterial activity. Bacitracin zinc binds to C55-isoprenyl pyrophosphate, a biphosphate lipid transport molecule that carries the building blocks of the peptidoglycan bacterial cell wall, thereby interfering with the enzymatic dephosphorylation of the C55-isoprenyl pyrophosphate and preventing peptidoglycan synthesis which leads to cell lysis.

neomycin base (as neomycin sulfate)

polymyxin B sulfate
