Fluconazole 0.3% w/v, 5mL Eye Drops
SKU GME1158Eye Care
Product Introduction
Fluconazole 0.3% w/v eye drops provide local antifungal treatment for susceptible fungal corneal infection. They are used for fungal keratitis rather than routine bacterial conjunctivitis or uncomplicated dry eye.
How to use
Instil into the affected lower-eyelid pocket at evenly spaced treatment intervals. Leave five to ten minutes between different eye medicines. Corneal ulcers may need frequent dosing and repeat examinations to assess healing.
How it works
Fluconazole inhibits fungal lanosterol 14-alpha-demethylase, reducing ergosterol formation. Loss of this essential membrane component impairs fungal growth.
Side effects
Transient burning, irritation, redness or blurred vision may occur. Increasing pain or deteriorating sight can also reflect progression of the corneal infection.
Important information
Antifungal activity differs between fungal species. Corneal examination and, where needed, laboratory sampling help determine whether fluconazole is appropriate. Adding steroid drops can worsen an uncontrolled fungal infection.
Uses
- Fungal corneal ulcers caused by susceptible organisms.
Benefits
Delivers antifungal treatment directly to a corneal infection caused by fluconazole-susceptible fungi.
Can these drops treat every fungal eye infection?
No. Different fungi respond differently, and deep or severe infection may need another antifungal or additional treatment.
Are fluconazole eye drops equivalent to oral fluconazole?
They contain the same antifungal molecule but deliver it by a different route. The two presentations are not interchangeable.
Why might the eye need repeated examination?
The size and depth of a corneal ulcer can change before symptoms reliably show whether it is improving.
Can I use leftover steroid drops for the redness?
Steroids can suppress local defences and worsen fungal corneal infection. They should not be added as self-treatment.
Does fading redness mean the ulcer has healed?
Not necessarily. Healing is assessed from the corneal surface and infection activity as well as comfort.
