Ofloxacin-POS 3gm

Ofloxacin POS is a broad-spectrum antibiotic eye drop used to treat bacterial infections of the eye caused by germs sensitive to ofloxacin.

Active ingredient

• 0.3% Ofloxacin
• Ofloxacin belongs to the fluoroquinolone antibiotic group.

Common uses

It is used for the local treatment of bacterial eye infections, including:

• Eyelid infections (blepharitis)
• Conjunctivitis (bacterial pink eye)
• Corneal infections
• External eye wounds or injuries
• Chemical burns affecting the eye
• Prevention or treatment of infection after eye surgery

How it works

Ofloxacin kills bacteria by interfering with their DNA replication, helping stop the infection and reduce symptoms such as:

• Redness
• Discharge
• Swelling
• Pain or irritation

Important points

• Use exactly as prescribed by an eye specialist.
• Complete the full treatment course even if symptoms improve early, to help prevent recurrence or antibiotic resistance.
• Avoid touching the dropper tip to the eye or other surfaces.
• Contact lenses are usually avoided during active eye infections unless advised otherwise by a doctor.

“Ensure patient compliance” means

Patients should:

• Use the drops regularly at the prescribed times
• Finish the entire course
• Follow hygiene instructions carefully

Good compliance improves treatment success and reduces the risk of resistant infection.
