Overview Ciplox D Eye Ointment

Ciprofloxacin and Dexamethasone Ophthalmic Ointment combats bacterial eye infections accompanied by inflammation. Its antibacterial action eliminates and inhibits the proliferation of infectious microorganisms, thus alleviating symptoms like redness, itching, and swelling, and promoting faster healing. Apply only to the affected eye. Always consult the accompanying instructions before use, adhering strictly to the prescribed dosage and duration. Wash hands thoroughly prior to application. Continue the full course of treatment even with symptom improvement; premature discontinuation risks infection recurrence. Minor, transient irritation or discomfort may occur immediately after application; persistent or worsening symptoms warrant medical attention. In case of accidental contact with the ears, nose, or mouth, rinse thoroughly with water. Report any allergies to the ointment's components or concurrent medications to your physician. Avoid driving or operating machinery immediately after application due to potential temporary visual blurring.
