Delivery agent could make a difference too. Everything has tradeoffs.


Both products have only one other ingredient...white petrolatum. Delivery vehicle is the same.

BTW, someone mentioned that the neosporin spray is NOT "neosporin" ointment. I checked today at the drug store - it's Balconium Chloride, and some pain killer (can't remember which)
