Levomekol Ointment – Chloramphenicol & Methyluracil Topical Antibiotic
Levomekol Ointment is a trusted topical antibacterial and wound-healing medication designed to treat and prevent skin infections. The formula combines Chloramphenicol, a broad-spectrum antibiotic, with Methyluracil, a tissue-regenerating compound that speeds up the healing process. This combination makes Levomekol highly effective for managing wounds, burns, ulcers, cuts, and other skin injuries where infection and inflammation are a concern.
How It Works:
- Chloramphenicol fights a wide range of bacteria by inhibiting protein synthesis, stopping the spread of infection at the site of the wound.
- Methyluracil stimulates tissue regeneration and supports the natural healing process by enhancing local immunity and collagen production.
Together, these active ingredients provide both antimicrobial protection and accelerated recovery, helping damaged skin heal cleanly and effectively.
Indications (Uses):
Levomekol Ointment is commonly used for:
- Infected wounds, cuts, and abrasions
- Burns (first- and second-degree)
- Postoperative sutures and ulcers
- Pressure sores and trophic ulcers
- Purulent (infected) wounds with discharge
- Skin infections caused by bacteria sensitive to Chloramphenicol
It is often recommended in surgical, dermatological, and wound-care settings to help prevent complications and promote clean tissue regeneration.
Directions for Use:
- Clean the affected area with a mild antiseptic or sterile saline solution.
- Apply a thin, even layer of Levomekol Ointment directly to the wound or onto a sterile gauze pad.
- Cover the area with a clean dressing.
- Replace the dressing and reapply the ointment once or twice daily, or as directed by your healthcare provider.
For deep or purulent wounds, the ointment can be gently introduced into the cavity using a sterile syringe or gauze strip.
Precautions:
- For external use only.
- Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.
- Do not use if you are allergic to Chloramphenicol, Methyluracil, or other topical antibiotics.

- Prolonged or extensive use should be supervised by a physician.
