Overview Oftal-B Eye Ointment

Bactron Eye Ointment combats bacterial infections of the eye. Its action eliminates bacteria and inhibits their proliferation, thus alleviating symptoms and accelerating recovery. Apply Bactron Eye Ointment only to the affected eye. Always follow the instructions on the label and your doctor's prescription regarding dosage and treatment duration. Wash hands thoroughly before application. Complete the prescribed course, even if symptoms improve; premature discontinuation risks recurrence. Mild burning, irritation, or discomfort at the application site are possible, typically subsiding spontaneously. However, report persistent or worsening symptoms to your physician. In case of accidental contact with the nose, mouth, or ears, flush 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.
