Tobramycin 0.3% w/v + Fluorometholone 0.1% w/v, 5mL Eye Drops
SKU GME1227Eye Care
Product Introduction
Tobramycin 0.3% w/v + Fluorometholone 0.1% w/v eye drops treat steroid-responsive eye inflammation accompanied by susceptible bacterial infection or a significant infection risk. They pair antibacterial treatment with local inflammation control.
How to use
Shake the suspension well to redistribute the medicine, then instil into the lower-eyelid pocket. Close the eyelids gently and leave at least five minutes before another eye drop. Apply an eye ointment last if both forms are needed.
How it works
Tobramycin binds to bacterial 30S ribosomes and disrupts protein synthesis. Fluorometholone reduces local inflammatory-cell activity and mediator release.
Side effects
Temporary stinging, irritation or blur may occur. Ocular steroids can also raise pressure, slow corneal healing or permit secondary infection with longer use.
Important information
Fluorometholone can increase eye pressure, particularly with longer or repeated treatment. Tell your doctor about glaucoma, corneal thinning, previous steroid-related pressure elevation and herpes or fungal eye disease.
Uses
- Steroid-responsive ocular inflammation with susceptible bacterial infection or a significant risk of bacterial infection.
Benefits
Combines local antibacterial action with reduction of inflammatory swelling and irritation.
Is fluorometholone the same steroid as dexamethasone?
No. They are different corticosteroids. Eye-drop combinations containing them should not be swapped solely because their percentages look similar.
Why is shaking important for this formulation?
Particles can settle in a suspension. Shaking helps distribute the medicine evenly before each application.
Can fluorometholone raise eye pressure?
Yes. Eye pressure can rise even though the average response may be lower than with some other ocular steroids. Monitoring is still needed during longer or repeated courses.
Does this combination treat fungal infection?
No. Tobramycin is antibacterial, and the steroid can allow an untreated fungal infection to worsen.
Can the bottle be kept for the next episode of red eye?
A later red eye may have a different cause, and a previously opened bottle may be contaminated. It should not be reused as routine self-treatment.
