How Bacitracin + Lidocaine + Neomycin + Polymyxin B works

Bacitracin + Lidocaine + Neomycin + Polymyxin B is a combination of four medicines: Bacitracin , Lidocaine , Neomycin , and Polymyxin B. Bacitracin works by preventing the formation of the bacterial protective covering which is essential for the survival of bacteria in the human body. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic which works by blocking pain signals from the nerves to brain thereby decreasing the sensation of pain and irritation in the skin. Neomycin stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Polymyxin B kills bacteria by destroying the bacterial cell membrane.
