My cat came home with a minor wound and swelling on his leg. I didnt notice it until today. I bought him the original polysporin with 2 antibiotics. I've read some vet sites saying polymxycin B is deadly to cats, when we use it in my other cats vet eye ointment. What are your thoughts?

Should I discontinue it?

I would not use a medication for humans on my cat without consulting a vet first. I think that should be your first call.
