Moxifloxacin Eye Drops are a type of medication used to treat bacterial infections of the eye. How it works? Moxifloxacin belongs to a class of drugs known as fluoroquinolones, which work by inhibiting the activity of bacterial DNA gyrase, an enzyme that is necessary for bacterial DNA replication. This leads to the death of the bacteria, stopping the infection from spreading. Moxifloxacin eye drops are commonly used to treat bacterial conjunctivitis (pink eye) and other bacterial eye infections such as blepharitis and keratitis. They are usually applied to the affected eye(s) as directed by a healthcare provider, usually once or twice daily for 7 to 14 days depending on the severity of the infection. The most common side effects associated with moxifloxacin eye drops are mild burning or stinging when the drops are applied. However, serious side effects are rare. It’s important to talk to your healthcare provider if you experience any unusual symptoms or if the infection doesn’t improve or worsens after using the drops. It is also important to follow the dosing instructions provided by your healthcare provider, and not to stop using the medication early, even if symptoms improve. This is because if the full course of treatment is not completed, the infection may come back or become more difficult to treat. Moxifloxacin eye drops should be stored at room temperature and protected from light. They should be discarded after the expiration date or if they become discolored or cloudy. It’s important to not use the drops if the solution appears discolored or cloudy, or if there are any particles visible. It’s also important to note that moxifloxacin eye drops should not be used in individuals who are allergic to moxifloxacin or any other ingredient in the medication. It’s important to inform your healthcare provider of any other medications you are taking and any medical conditions you have before starting treatment with moxifloxacin eye drops.
