How It Works
Chloramphenicol
A broad-spectrum antibiotic that inhibits bacterial protein synthesis by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit. This prevents bacteria from growing and multiplying, effectively eliminating susceptible organisms responsible for ocular infections.
Dexamethasone
A potent corticosteroid that suppresses inflammatory mediators, helping relieve redness, swelling, irritation and pain while improving patient comfort during treatment.
Combined Therapeutic Action
Together, Dexamethasone and Chloramphenicol provide effective management of bacterial eye infections with associated inflammation by addressing both the underlying infection and the inflammatory symptoms, ensuring comprehensive ocular care.
