Overview Polydex Eye/Ear Drops

Polydex Ophthalmic and Otic Solution is a prescription medication combating bacterial infections in the eyes and ears. Its mechanism involves eliminating bacteria and inhibiting their proliferation. Additionally, it suppresses inflammatory mediators responsible for itching and irritation. Apply only to the affected eye or ear. Always adhere to the enclosed instructions and your physician's prescribed dosage and duration. Wash your hands thoroughly before administration. Avoid under- or overdosing; complete the full course of treatment, regardless of symptom improvement, unless directed otherwise by your doctor. Minor, transient side effects like burning, irritation, itching, or redness at the application site may occur immediately following instillation. Persistent or worsening symptoms warrant medical attention. Rinse thoroughly with water should accidental nasal or oral contact happen. Report any known allergies to Polydex components or concurrent medications to your doctor. Temporary visual blurring may occur; therefore, avoid driving or operating heavy machinery immediately after use.
