Moxi Eye Drops contain two active ingredients:

• Moxifloxacin (0.5%): As a fluoroquinolone antibiotic, moxifloxacin works by inhibiting two enzymes in your body - DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. These enzymes are key in helping bacteria replicate their DNA and divide into new cells. By blocking these enzymes, moxifloxacin effectively hampers bacterial growth and multiplication.

• Benzalkonium Chloride (0.02%): This component acts as an antimicrobial preservative in the formulation of the eye drops. It prevents the growth of bacteria and other microorganisms, thereby ensuring that the product remains sterile during use. In addition to its preservative role, benzalkonium chloride also possesses some bactericidal and fungicidal properties which contribute to its effectiveness against certain bacterial infections.

• Keep Moxi Eye Drops in a dark place to protect from light.

• After opening the bottle, use the eye drops within one month to minimise risk of contamination.

• Always keep this medicine out of the reach of children.

• Be sure to use Moxi Eye Drops before its expiry date.

• If you've been prescribed Moxi Eye Drops for bacterial conjunctivitis, avoid touching or rubbing your eyes. This can help prevent spreading the infection to other people or to your other eye.

• Maintain a healthy diet rich in vitamin A and omega-3 fatty acids. Foods like carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach, and fish can help support overall eye health while managing bacterial eye infections.
