Chlorocol H Eye Ointment 3gm

Chlorocol-H Eye Ointment is useful for managing various health issues including:

• Bacterial conjunctivitis: This condition causes inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin layer covering the front of your eye.

• Keratitis: This infection affects the cornea, the clear layer at the front of your eye.

• Corneal ulcers: These are open sores on the cornea.

• Uveitis: An inflammation inside your eye.

To utilise Chlorocol-H Eye Ointment effectively, follow these steps:

• Clean your hands before applying this ointment.

• Gently pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.

• Apply a small amount inside this pocket. Make sure not to touch your eye or any other surface with the tube tip.

• Close your eyes gently and roll your eyeball around for a few moments to spread the ointment evenly.

• Always consult your doctor for specific advice on when and how often to apply this ointment.

Chlorocol-H Eye Ointment is applied topically.

Chlorocol-H Eye Ointment contains two active ingredients:

• Chloramphenicol (1%): This is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that works by binding to a part of the bacteria known as the 50S ribosomal subunit. In simple terms, it stops bacteria from producing proteins they need to survive and grow, effectively managing the infection.

• Hydrocortisone (0.5%): Classified as a mild corticosteroid, hydrocortisone reduces inflammation by limiting the production of substances in the body that cause inflammation and discomfort. This helps alleviate symptoms such as redness and swelling associated with ocular inflammation.

• Store Chlorocol-H Eye Ointment at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• Keep the tube tightly closed when not in use, to prevent exposure to air and moisture.

• To maintain its effectiveness, protect it from light.

• For safety reasons, keep it out of reach of children.

• If you often suffer from bacterial eye infections or inflammatory ocular conditions, try to maintain a balanced diet rich in vitamins A, C, and E. These vitamins are known to boost eye health and can help manage these conditions.

• Wash your hands regularly and avoid touching your eyes unnecessarily to prevent the spread of bacteria that could lead to infections. This is especially important while you're using Chlorocol-H Eye Ointment.
