About Festive-D Eye/Ear Drop

Festive-D Eye/Ear Drop is a combination of a corticosteroid and an antibiotic that is used to treat bacterial infections of the eye/ear. Bacterial infection is a condition that occurs when bacteria enter the eye/ear, leading to infections.

Festive-D Eye/Ear Drop contains betamethasone and ofloxacin. Betamethasone blocks the production of chemical messengers that cause redness and inflammation. Ofloxacin fights against bacteria by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase, an enzyme required for DNA replication, transcription, and repair. Thus, Festive-D Eye/Ear Drop treats bacterial infections of the eye/ear.

Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your infection. Common side effects of Festive-D Eye/Ear Drop are irritation, itching, and discomfort. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. If these side effects persist longer, please consult your doctor.
