Hydrocortisone is a corticosteroid that provides anti-inflammatory action by suppressing migration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and reversing increased capillary permeability. Neomycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that binds to 30S ribosomal subunits of bacterial ribosome, inhibiting protein synthesis and generating errors in genetic code transcription causing cell death.
