How Olycin B 5000IU/1%/0.1% Eye/Ear Drop works:
Olycin B Eye/Ear Drops (5000 IU/1%/0.1%) combines polymyxin B, chloramphenicol, and betamethasone to combat ear and eye infections. Polymyxin B, an antibiotic, targets bacterial cell membranes, leading to bacterial cell death. Betamethasone, a corticosteroid, reduces inflammation and itching by suppressing prostaglandin production – inflammatory mediators triggered by allergies or infection. Chloramphenicol, another antibiotic, halts bacterial proliferation by interfering with the synthesis of proteins crucial for bacterial survival.
