The ingredients in Quadritop Ointment work by treating both the symptoms and the underlying cause of the infection. Nystatin is an antifungal medication and neomycin treats both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Thiostrepton is effective against some resistant gram-positive bacteria. Triamcinolone acetonide is a synthetic corticosteroid medication that rapidly relieves inflammation and itching.
