Mycitracin - Triple Infection Fighter  

   Return to Upjohn Memories Home Page  
 

Mycitracin is a brand of triple antibiotic ointment (bacitracin, neomycin sulfate, and polymyxin B sulfate). It was intended to provide broad-spectrum protection against infections in minor cuts, scrapes, and burns. It was sold by The Upjohn Company from September 1950 to the end of the company in 1995. In 1986, a ceramic figure called 'Ol Doc', shown on this page, was used by Upjohn to advertise Mycitracin.

Mycitracin was later acquired by Johnson & Johnson, who still sell it today.
