Maxitrol Dexamethasone & Antibiotic Eye Drops - 5ml Bottle
Severe eye infections often present with a combination of bacterial overgrowth and intense, painful inflammation that causes redness, swelling, and purulent discharge. Maxitrol Eye Drops deliver a highly effective combination therapy. By uniting two broad-spectrum antibiotics (Neomycin and Polymyxin B) to eradicate harmful ocular bacteria, alongside Dexamethasone (a potent corticosteroid) to rapidly suppress inflammatory immune responses, these drops restore clear vision and ocular comfort safely.
How to Use / Operate
Wash your hands thoroughly. Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and instill 1 to 2 drops into the conjunctival sac. For severe disease, drops may be used hourly, being tapered to discontinuation as the inflammation subsides. Use exactly as prescribed by your ophthalmologist.

Important Clinical Considerations
