About MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML

MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML belongs to a group of medications called 'Antibiotics and Corticosteroids' used to treat bacterial eye infections or eye discomfort. It is also used in patients who have undergone eye surgeries. It is effectively used to treat eye inflammation caused by allergies, shingles, severe acne, iritis (inflammation of the coloured part of the eye (iris)), uveitis (inflammation of the middle layer of the eye (uvea)), eye injury, radiation, and chemical burns. A bacterial eye infection occurs when bacteria invade any part of the eyeball or its surrounding tissues, including the cornea (clear front surface of the eye) and the conjunctiva (thin membrane lining the outer eye and inner eyelids). MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML is used to prevent or treat only bacterial eye infections. It does not work against infections caused by viruses and fungi.

MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML contains two medicines: Moxifloxacin (antibiotic) and Loteprednol (corticosteroid). Moxifloxacin belongs to a class of drugs called fluoroquinolone antibiotics. Moxifloxacin is an antibiotic that helps treat and prevent a wide range of bacterial infections. It kills bacteria (bactericidal action) by preventing the synthesis of enzymes, namely DNA gyrase and Topoisomerase II and IV, which is essential for the growth and survival of the bacterial cell. Loteprednol belongs to the class of corticosteroids. It blocks prostaglandins' production (chemical messengers), making the eye red, swollen, and itchy. Together, MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML prevents the spread of eye infections caused by bacteria and reduces inflammation and pain.

MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML is available in the form of an ophthalmic solution (eye drops). Your doctor will advise on how often you take MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML based on your medical condition. Some common side effects of eye drop formulation of MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML include redness in the eyes, blurred vision, burning or stinging sensation in the eye, and eye discomfort. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time.

Please do not use MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML without consulting your doctor if you have a damaged cornea, ulcers in the eye, eye infection and producing pus, open lesions in the eye, and glaucoma (a condition where the pressure inside the eye is increased). Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before using MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML. Avoid touching the eyedropper with bare hands or taking it closer to the eyelids while administering drops since it contaminates the dropper tip and solution. If you wear contact lenses, please inform your doctor since the MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML may contain additives like Benzalkonium chloride that change the lens's colour. MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML sometimes may make your eye red after administration; in such cases, please avoid wearing a lens until the eye improves. Avoid driving or operating machines since the administration of eye drops of MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML cause blurred vision for a while after use.

Directions for Use

• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication.• Tilt the head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and squeeze the prescribed number of drops.• Do not touch the container tip to the eye, eyelids, or surrounding areas to prevent contamination.• Replace the outer cap after use.

Medicinal Benefits

MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML is a combination of two medicines: Moxifloxacin and Loteprednol. Moxifloxacin is a fluoroquinolone and broad-spectrum antibiotic. It can act against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It kills bacteria (bactericidal action) by preventing the synthesis of enzymes, namely DNA gyrase and Topoisomerase II and IV, which is essential for the growth and survival of the bacterial cell. Loteprednol is a corticosteroid with anti-inflammatory properties and acts by inhibiting the chemicals such as prostaglandins production (chemical messengers) that make the eye red, swollen, and itchy. It reduces symptoms associated with infection, such as redness and irritation of the eye, and decreases the risk of infections. Collectively, MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML treats and prevents bacterial eye infections and eye inflammation caused by allergies, shingles, severe acne, iritis (inflammation of the coloured part of the eye (iris)), uveitis (inflammation of the middle layer of the eye (uvea)), eye injury, radiation, and chemical burns. MOXLUVLT EYE DROPS 5ML is used to prevent or treat only bacterial eye infections. It does not work against infections caused by viruses and fungi.
