My cat licked Neosporin and is drooling. Is the medicine toxic?

Question

My cat must have licked off some Neosporin ointment from his wound n now has drooling. I had applied only a small quantity about 2gms and only once...the symptoms developed after 24hrs and persist till now. It's been more than 3 days that he has been drooling. Is there anything that I can do to stop his drooling and something to flush the medicine from his system. He has a good appetite n is regularly drinking water too.

If he isn't constantly licking the cream, it's not likely to be why he is drooling, he is probably drooling because of a teeth problem or because of nausea. you need to take him to the vet in order to get it checked.
