La bacitracine est surtout bactéricide pour les bactéries gram positives, y compris les organismes résistant à la pénicilline. [...] Combinée avec la polymyxine B ou la néomycine, la bacitracine sert à la suppression de flores bactériennes mixtes des lésions de surface. On ne l'utilise pas en thérapeutique systématique. La bacitracine est toxique pour le rein, causant de la protéinurie, de l'hématurie et de la rétention d'azote. Pour cette raison son administration systémique n'est pas souhaitable. 2, record 6, French, - bacitracine
