• Warm the bottle by holding it in your hand for a minute or two.

• Lie down with the affected ear facing up.

Ceflox-D Eye/Ear Drops is instilled topically.

Ceflox-D Eye/Ear Drops contains three active ingredients:

• Ciprofloxacin (0.3%): Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic that prevents bacterial DNA replication and transcription by inhibiting two key enzymes DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. This action helps fight against a range of bacteria commonly causing ear and eye infections.

• Betamethasone (0.01%): This ingredient is a potent corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and swelling associated with ear and eye infections. It works by suppressing the release of substances that cause inflammation while increasing the production of proteins that reduce inflammation.

• Benzalkonium Chloride (0.02%): This compound serves as a preservative in the formulation, keeping it safe from bacterial and fungal contamination. It works by disrupting the cell membranes of bacteria and fungi, thus preventing their growth within the multi-dose container.

• Store Ceflox-D Eye/Ear Drops at a temperature below 25°C.

• Shield the product from light to keep it effective.

• Always keep the medicine out of reach of children for safety reasons.

• Maintain good ear hygiene to prevent further infections. This involves drying your ears properly after washing or swimming. Avoid poking your ears with anything, even cotton swabs, as this can potentially introduce bacteria.

• Regularly clean your glasses or contact lenses if you use them, to prevent eye infections. Avoid touching or rubbing your eyes frequently as this can introduce bacteria into the eye.
