TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5 ML

How TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5 ML Works

• TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5 ML is a powerful antibiotic eye drop specifically formulated to combat bacterial infections affecting the eyes. It contains tobramycin, a broad-spectrum antibiotic that targets a wide range of bacteria commonly responsible for causing eye infections such as conjunctivitis (pink eye), blepharitis (inflammation of the eyelids), and keratitis (inflammation of the cornea).
• The mechanism of action of TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5 ML involves interfering with the bacteria's ability to produce essential proteins. Bacteria require these proteins to carry out vital functions like growth, replication, and survival. By blocking the synthesis of these proteins, TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5 ML effectively halts the bacteria's growth and prevents them from multiplying. This allows the body's natural defense mechanisms to eliminate the existing bacteria, thus resolving the eye infection.
• In simpler terms, TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5 ML acts like a roadblock, preventing bacteria from building the necessary components to thrive and spread within the eye. This ultimately leads to the elimination of the infection and restoration of eye health.

Most side effects are temporary and resolve as your body adapts to the medication. However, if any side effects persist or cause concern, it's important to consult your doctor.

• Burning sensation
• Eye redness
• Eye itching
• Eye irritation

• Keep TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5ML away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5ML at room temperature.

• Your doctor has prescribed TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5 ML to treat bacterial infections of the eye. This medication contains tobramycin, an antibiotic that effectively combats various bacterial strains causing eye infections. Follow your doctor's instructions precisely for the best results.
• It's crucial not to skip any doses and to complete the entire course of treatment, even if your symptoms improve. Prematurely stopping the medication can lead to the infection recurring or the bacteria developing resistance to the antibiotic. Consistency is key to eliminating the infection completely.
• Prolonged use of TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5 ML may potentially cause damage to the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye. Your doctor will monitor your progress and determine the appropriate duration of treatment. If you experience any vision changes or eye pain, inform your doctor immediately.
• To maximize the effectiveness of the eye drops, apply gentle pressure to the inner corner of your eye (near the nose) for about one minute immediately after instilling the drop. This helps to prevent the medication from draining away quickly and allows it to be absorbed more effectively.
• If you are using other eye medications, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes before administering the next one in the same eye. This prevents dilution of the medications and ensures that each one has sufficient time to work properly. Administering medications too close together can reduce their efficacy.
• A stinging sensation may occur for a short period (1-2 minutes) after applying the eye drops. This is usually temporary and should subside quickly. However, if the stinging persists for longer or becomes severe, notify your doctor for further evaluation.
• To maintain sterility and prevent contamination, make sure to use TOBREX OPH SOLUTION 5 ML within 4 weeks of opening the bottle. Discard any remaining solution after this period, even if it appears to be unused. Using expired or contaminated eye drops can lead to further infection or irritation.
