Ciplox D Eye/Ear Drops contains Ciprofloxacin (0.3% w/v) + Dexamethasone (0.1% w/v). It belongs to the Fluoroquinolone antibiotic + corticosteroid class of medicines.
Ciprofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase/topoisomerase, stopping bacterial growth. Dexamethasone is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation, redness, swelling and pain.
Use only as prescribed. For eye: instill drops into affected eye(s) without touching tip; close eye for 1-2 minutes. For ear: instill into affected ear; keep head tilted for a few minutes. Remove contact lenses unless advised. Do not stop early even if symptoms improve.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
If you miss a dose of CIPlox D Eye/Ear Drops, skip it and continue with your normal schedule. Do not double the dose.

It can cause weight gain, high blood sugar, bone thinning and suppression of the body's own steroid production when it is taken over a prolonged period. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
