Floxagerm KT Eye Drops

Description

Therapy/Class: Antibiotic + NSAID

Mechanism of Action:

Ofloxacin: A fluorinated carboxyquinolone exerting potent bactericidal activity by selectively inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase (topoisomerase II) and topoisomerase IV. This action arrests DNA replication, transcription, and repair in a broad spectrum of Gram-positive and Gram-negative ocular pathogens.

Ketorolac Tromethamine: A direct, non-selective COX inhibitor that prevents the conversion of arachidonic acid to endoperoxides. This halts the prostaglandin-mediated inflammatory cascade, significantly raising the nociceptive threshold (reducing pain) and preventing surgically induced miosis and cystoid macular edema.

Indications

Treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis caused by susceptible organisms

Superficial ocular bacterial infections as advised by the treating ophthalmologist
