Product introduction

Moxtif Eye Drops is a prescription medicine containing Moxifloxacin. It is used for bacterial infection, urinary infection, chest infection and gut infection. It belongs to the group of medicines called Fluoroquinolone.

Wash your hands. The dose and how long you take it depend on what you are being treated for and how you respond. Do not take more, or for longer, than your doctor has advised.

The side effects seen most often with Moxtif Eye Drops are nausea, loose motions, headache and dizziness. Most are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. Tell your doctor if one persists or worries you.

Before you start, tell your doctor about any liver, kidney or heart problem, whether you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding, and every other medicine you take, including supplements and ayurvedic preparations. Some of them can change how Moxtif Eye Drops works.

Uses

Bacterial infection
Urinary infection
Chest infection
Gut infection

Benefits

In Bacterial infection: Moxtif kills bacteria by stopping them copying their DNA, treating infections that have not responded to, or are not suitable for, other antibiotics.
In Urinary infection: Moxtif clears bacteria from the bladder and kidneys, relieving burning, frequency and pain.
In Chest infection: Moxtif treats bacterial chest infections, easing the cough, fever and breathlessness as the infection clears.
In Gut infection: Moxtif treats bacterial infections of the gut that cause severe or persistent diarrhoea, particularly when travelling.

Side effects

Most side effects of Moxtif are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

Nausea
Loose motions
Headache
Dizziness
Sleep disturbance

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

How to use

Wash your hands. Tilt your head back, pull the lower lid down to make a small pocket and squeeze one drop into it, then close the eye gently for a minute. Do not let the dropper tip touch your eye, your fingers or any surface. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

How it works

Moxifloxacin kills the bacteria causing your infection by blocking the enzymes they use to copy their DNA.

Warnings & precautions

Stop and contact your doctor at once if you develop pain, swelling or tenderness in a tendon — the Achilles tendon at the back of the ankle in particular. This group can damage tendons, and the risk is higher in older people and with steroids. Report any new numbness, tingling or burning in the hands or feet promptly. Tell your doctor about any change in mood, confusion or agitation. Avoid strong sunlight and use sun protection — this group makes the skin burn more easily. Finish the whole course; this group is heavily associated with antibiotic resistance and should be used only when prescribed.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one — applying extra does not make up for it.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause kidney injury, fits and heart rhythm disturbance. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Quick tips

Drink plenty of water through the course.
Separate it from antacids, milk and mineral supplements.
