Of course there are times when doctors send a drug in mg that is no longer in the pharmaceutical market and you have to buy one of a different mg, also remember that the dosage will not always be exact because it also depends on the weight of the person for example.
What you did is wrong, for skin wounds there are specific creams with the same antibiotic active ingredient that you needed. Remember that the excipients and molecules will not always be the same even though it is the same active ingredient.
Thank you for correcting the wrong doings. I just did that because of old people's teaching. I was just a child back then so i dont have a choice :)
Believe me I did just that too. But surely by the time of our grandparents and parents there were no such medications in cream. But nowadays pharmacology adapts quickly to people's needs so we no longer have to resort to the inventions of the past.
Yeah, its developed now adays
