Anaphylactic reactions to topical antibiotic combinations.

D J Eedy1, J C McMillan, E A Bingham.   

Abstract

We describe two patients who developed anaphylaxis type reactions following the application of the topical antibiotic Polyfax (polymixin B and bacitracin). We draw attention to this potentially serious complication of topical antibiotic preparations and emphasize the need for careful history taking before prescribing such preparations.
