Cortichlor Eye Ointment

Overview Cortichlor Eye Ointment

Cortichlor Ophthalmic Ointment combats bacterial eye infections by eliminating and inhibiting the proliferation of infectious microorganisms. This action alleviates symptoms and accelerates recovery. Apply only to the affected eye, strictly adhering to the dosage and duration specified by your physician or the package insert. Always wash your hands beforehand. Use the prescribed amount – neither more nor less. Continue treatment as directed, even if symptoms improve, until your doctor advises otherwise. Minor burning, stinging, or irritation may occur temporarily at the application site; persistent or worsening discomfort warrants medical attention. Should accidental contact with the ears, nose, or mouth occur, rinse immediately with water. Disclose any allergies to the ointment's components or concurrent medications to your doctor. Avoid driving or operating machinery immediately after application due to potential temporary visual blurring.
