Moxibert-DM Eye Drop
PRODUCT DETAILS
About Moxibert-DM Eye Drop
MOXIFLOXACIN+DEXAMETHASONE belongs to the class of ocular medications called ‘antibiotics’ used to treat inflammation associated with bacterial eye infections. It treats eye infections like conjunctivitis (infected conjunctiva) and other inflammatory conditions after eye surgery.
MOXIFLOXACIN+DEXAMETHASONE is a combination of two medicines: Moxifloxacin (antibiotic) and Dexamethasone (steroid). Moxifloxacin is an antibiotic that stops bacteria from making a copy of their genetic material (DNA), thereby killing and stopping the growth of bacterial infection. Dexamethasone is a steroid that reduces inflammation and symptoms associated with infection such as redness and irritation by inhibiting the natural substance like prostaglandins that cause inflammation. Thus together MOXIFLOXACIN+DEXAMETHASONE prevents spread of redness, allergies, inflammation and bacterial infection in the eyes.
