Distributor inventory | Drop
Uses & Benefits
Treatment of bacterial eye infections with associated inflammation, such as bacterial conjunctivitis/blepharitis; used when a corticosteroid is indicated along with an antibiotic.
How It Works
Moxifloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, stopping bacterial replication. Dexamethasone is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation by suppressing inflammatory mediators, thereby decreasing redness, swelling and pain.
Directions for Use
For ophthalmic use only. Instill the prescribed number of drops into the affected eye(s) as directed by the doctor; typically used 3–4 times daily. Wash hands before use, avoid touching the dropper tip, and keep a 5–10 minute gap if using other eye drops. Remove contact lenses before use and reinsert only if advised by a doctor.
Side Effects
Eye irritation/burning,stinging,blurred vision,eye redness,watering,itching,foreign body sensation,unpleasant taste
Warnings & Precautions
Use only for bacterial eye infections; do not use for viral/fungal eye infections unless advised. Prolonged steroid use may increase intraocular pressure, cause glaucoma/cataract, delay wound healing, and increase risk of secondary infections—use for the shortest duration prescribed. Use with caution in patients with glaucoma, corneal thinning/ulceration, or history of steroid response. Stop and seek medical help if severe pain, vision changes, swelling/rash, or worsening symptoms occur. Do not wear contact lenses during an active eye infection unless advised.
