What should I avoid while using bacitracin, neomycin, and polymyxin B?

Bacitracin, neomycin, and polymyxin B is for use only on your skin. Avoid getting this medicine in your mouth, nose, or eyes. If it does get into any of these areas, rinse with water.

Google or Bing it. OH wait, do you have any Bausch and Lome(whatever on the spellinnoway ) eye wash? Use that. I've used it on my dog. It worked fine.

At least in humans, the eye will regenerate/heal itself in 24 hours. Being a metal worker, you occassionally get metal shaving in your eye. I had to have one removed by a specialist, he took a dremel like tool and had to dig out the rust created by the metal sliver. He told me that in 24 hours the eye would heal itself and you could never tell what he did.

Im assuming that a cats eye would be roughly the same. If its a scratch it should heal itself rapidly. Not that medication wont help, just watch it.

Is it spayed or neutered . . . my girlfriend says neutering cures men of a plethora of ailments.

The cats eye is just like a human eye and it will heal itself, starting almost immediately..Had a ferret that tried to eat the cats food and the cat got its claw into the ferrets eye.. Was told the above info by the vet...

And it might run some in the night and be closed in the morning. If so, just wipe it gently with some warm salt water and wash cloth.
