Moxicip Kt Eye Drops 5ml

Moxicip KT Eye Drops are used for the following health conditions:

• Managing bacterial conjunctivitis caused by strains of different bacteria including Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Haemophilus influenzae.

• Reducing inflammation and relieving pain after cataract surgery.

Here's how you should use Moxicip KT Eye Drops:

• Always wash your hands before using the eye drops.

• Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.

• Hold the dropper above the eye with the tip down. Look up and away from the dropper as you squeeze out a drop.

• Close your eyes for 2 to 3 minutes with your head tilted down, without blinking or squinting.

• Gently press your finger to the inside corner of the eye for about 1 minute, to keep the liquid from draining into your tear duct.

• For specific directions related to your condition, consult your doctor.

Moxicip KT Eye Drops are instilled topically.

Moxicip KT Eye Drops comprise two active ingredients that work together:

• Moxifloxacin (0.5%): Classified as a fluoroquinolone antibiotic, moxifloxacin operates by inhibiting enzymes called DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV in bacteria. These are vital for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, repair, and recombination. By disrupting these processes, moxifloxacin halts bacterial cell division and growth, effectively managing the infection.

• Ketorolac Tromethamine (0.5%): It works by inhibiting an enzyme called cyclooxygenase in your body. This blocks the formation of prostaglandins, substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. By inhibiting these substances, ketorolac helps reduce ocular discomfort associated with bacterial conjunctivitis and post-operative inflammation following cataract surgery.

• Keep Moxicip KT Eye Drops in a cool, dry place where the temperature stays between 15°C to 30°C.

• Protect the bottle from exposure to light and air.

• Always ensure the dropper cap is tightly sealed after each use.

• Store the drops out of reach of children.

• If you've had cataract surgery, try to avoid strenuous activities like lifting heavy items or bending over, as these actions can increase pressure in your eyes.

• For those with bacterial conjunctivitis, remember to wash your hands often and avoid touching your eyes to prevent further spread of infection.
