No but people should really stop abusing OTC antibiotics like Neosporin. You don't have to put it on every wound.

Yes but there's no reason to snark about a new class of antibiotics unless you think they shouldn't be used at all.

I tend to have wounds scab into the dressing which sucks because it rips out when you change it. Which is why I got vitamin E gel for those times I don't need an antibiotics. The capsules are also more convenient to carry around than a tube and take virtually no space in a bag/kit.
