About Ocupol Eye Ointment 5 gm
Ocupol Eye Ointment 5 gm belongs to a combination of medicines called 'antibiotics,' primarily used to treat bacterial infections of the eye.

Polymyxin B is bactericidal, killing bacteria by preventing the formation of bacterial cell walls, which are essential for their survival.
