Remember to consult your doctor for more specific instructions based on your condition.

Mahaflox-D Eye Drops are instiled topically.

Mahaflox-D Eye Drops contains three active ingredients:

• Moxifloxacin (0.5%): Moxifloxacin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that fights against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV enzymes, which are necessary for bacterial DNA replication. As a result, it causes bacterial cell death, helping eradicate the infection.

• Dexamethasone (0.1%): As a potent corticosteroid, dexamethasone helps suppress inflammation. It works by blocking the production of inflammatory substances like prostaglandins and leukotrienes, thus reducing redness, swelling, and pain in the eyes.

• Benzalkonium Chloride (0.01%): This compound acts as a preservative in Mahaflox-D Eye Drops. It provides antimicrobial activity which helps prevent the growth of bacteria, fungi, and other microbes that could contaminate the eye drop solution.

• Store Mahaflox-D Eye Drops at room temperature, ideally below 30°C.

• Keep it away from direct light sources to prevent any damage.

• Ensure the bottle is always tightly closed to avoid contamination.

• Keep this medication out of reach of children for safety reasons.

• If you're managing bacterial conjunctivitis or other ocular infections, try to avoid rubbing or touching your eyes frequently. This can help prevent spreading the infection further.

• Maintain good hygiene by washing your hands regularly and especially before instilling Mahaflox-D Eye Drops. This reduces the risk of introducing additional bacteria into your eyes.
