POOJA KOTHARIExpecting Mom due in 1 month3 months agoA. If your pediatrician has recommended Neosporin ointment for your 11-month-old baby, it is generally safe to use in small amounts and only on minor cuts, scrapes, or skin infections, as directed. Neosporin is a topical antibiotic that helps prevent bacterial infections in wounds.
However, please keep in mind the following:
✅ Safe to Use If: It is applied on unbroken, clean skin (like a small cut or wound). You use a thin layer and keep the area clean. You follow your pediatrician’s exact instructions. ⚠️ Caution: Do not use it near the eyes, mouth, or diaper area unless the doctor specifically advises. If your baby develops redness, itching, swelling, or rash, stop using it and consult your doctor—it may be an allergic reaction. Long-term use is not recommended without medical supervision.
🩺 Since your doctor has prescribed it, you can use it, but follow the dose and application instructions carefully. If you’re unsure about the type of infection or if it doesn’t improve in a few days, reconsult your pediatrician.
