Tobramycin 0.3% w/v, 5mL Eye/Ear Drops
SKU GME1201Eye Care
Product Introduction
Tobramycin 0.3% w/v eye/ear drops treat susceptible bacterial infections such as conjunctivitis and outer-ear infection. They deliver an aminoglycoside antibiotic directly to the infected surface.
How to use
For the eye, instil into the lower-eyelid pocket without touching the dropper to the lashes. For the ear, keep the affected ear facing upward for several minutes after instillation. Keep a bottle used in an infected ear separate from eye treatment.
How it works
Tobramycin binds to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit. This disrupts protein production and leads to death of susceptible bacteria.
Side effects
Local stinging, redness, itching or eyelid swelling may occur. Persistent irritation can indicate sensitivity to an aminoglycoside antibiotic.
Important information
Avoid contact lenses during an active eye infection. A perforated eardrum, ear tubes or previous ear surgery changes the safety of aminoglycoside ear treatment. Repeated courses can encourage resistant bacteria or fungal overgrowth.
Uses
- Susceptible bacterial conjunctivitis and bacterial outer-ear infections.
Benefits
Helps clear bacterial discharge and soreness by treating the organisms at the affected site.
Will these drops treat an allergy-related red eye?
No. Tobramycin is antibacterial and does not treat pollen allergy or viral conjunctivitis.
Do these drops also contain a steroid?
No. Tobramycin alone differs from combinations that add dexamethasone or another corticosteroid.
Why should treatment continue after discharge improves?
Visible symptoms can improve before the infection has cleared. Completing the planned course reduces the chance of early relapse.
Can a bottle be shared if two people have similar symptoms?
No. Sharing can pass organisms between people and contaminate the nozzle.
What does worsening pain or light sensitivity mean?
These symptoms, especially with reduced vision, can indicate corneal disease rather than uncomplicated conjunctivitis and need prompt examination.
