Pack Price Details
5 ml drop ৳ 5 ml drop: BDT 150.00

Administration

One drop in the affected eye(s) 2 times daily for 7 days.

Effects

In 1-6% patients the most frequently reported ocular adverse events are eye irritation, pyrexia, conjunctivitis, decreased visual acuity, dry eye, ocular discomfort, ocular hyperemia, ocular pain, ocular pruritus, subconjunctival hemorrhage and tearing.

There is practically no risk of adverse effects due to accidental ingestion, since a bottle of 5 ml eye drops solution contains only 25 mg Moxifloxacin that is much lower than recommended daily oral dose.

Indications

This ophthalmic solution is indicated for the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis caused by susceptible strains of the following organisms-

Aerobic Gram-positive microorganisms: Corynebacterium species, Micrococcus luteus, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus haemolyticus, Staphylococcus hominis, Staphylococcus warneri, Streptococcus pneumonia, Streptococcus viridans group.

Aerobic Gram-negative microorganisms: Acinetobacter iwoffii, Haemophilus influenza, Haemophilus parainfluenzae.

Pharmacology

The antimicrobial action of Moxifloxacin results from inhibition of the topoisomerase II (DNA gyrase) and topoisomerase IV. DNA gyrase is an essential enzyme that is involved in the replication, transcription and repair of bacterial DNA. Topoisomerase IV is an enzyme known to play a key role in the partitioning of the chromosomal DNA during bacterial cell division.

Precautions

Prolonged use may result in overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms, including fungi with other anti-infective.
