Nuba + Ointment | 10g Tube

✔️ Composition

Nuba + is indicated for the treatment and prevention of infections in wounds, burns, skin grafts, and donor sites. It is also effective in managing chronic varicose ulcers, indolent ulcers, furuncles, carbuncles, pyoderma, sycosis barbae, impetigo, and acne. Additionally, it may be used for secondary bacterial infections associated with scabies, pediculosis, tinea pedis, and contact or allergic dermatitis.

✔️ Possible side effects include:

• Nausea, vomiting, and localized pain or burning
• Skin irritation or rash
• Redness, swelling, or discomfort at the application site
• Rarely, nephrotoxicity or ototoxicity (hearing loss) due to systemic absorption

✔️ Pregnancy & Lactation

Topical use of neomycin during pregnancy and lactation is not recommended, as systemic absorption can potentially cause fetal toxicity. The excretion of topical components in breast milk is unknown. Use only if clearly needed and prescribed by a physician.

✔️ Dosage & Administration

Adults: Apply a thin layer of ointment to the affected area 1–3 times daily after proper cleaning. Continue until infection is fully controlled and healing is complete.

Children and Infants: The same dosing regimen applies, but a reduced amount should be used for infants.

Neonates: Use is not recommended in neonates.
Use only as advised by a registered physician.

✔️ Contraindications

Nuba+ is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to Neomycin, Bacitracin, Polymyxin B, or any component of the formulation. Due to the potential for increased systemic absorption, it should not be used in neonates.

✔️ Precautions & Warnings

Nuba + is not suitable for sterile surgical use involving internal cavities (abdominal or thoracic).

Avoid prolonged use, as it may lead to overgrowth of non-susceptible microorganisms.

Ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity have been reported with neomycin, especially in infants with immature skin or renal function.

Avoid contact with eyes, mucous membranes, or large open wounds.

✔️ Storage:

Store below 30°C, away from light and moisture. Keep tightly closed and out of reach of children.
