What is Gate P Eye Drops?
Gate P Eye Drops is manufactured by Sun Pharma — a sterile fixed combination of Gatifloxacin 0.3% and Prednisolone acetate 1% in a single ophthalmic solution. The dual mechanism kills susceptible bacterial pathogens while suppressing the inflammatory response that contributes to redness, swelling, and discomfort. Reserved for situations where both bacterial infection and clinically significant inflammation are confirmed.
Jak to funguje
Gatifloxacin inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase (topoisomerase II) and topoisomerase IV, the enzymes that supercoil and uncoil bacterial DNA during replication and repair. Without functional enzymes, the bacterial chromosome fragments and the cell dies. As a 4th-generation fluoroquinolone, gatifloxacin has expanded Gram-positive coverage compared with older agents and remains active against many fluoroquinolone-resistant Streptococcus and Staphylococcus strains. Prednisolone acetate binds intracellular glucocorticoid receptors and suppresses transcription of pro-inflammatory cytokines, reducing leukocyte trafficking, capillary permeability, and tissue oedema.
Indikace
- Bakteriální zánět spojivek s výrazným zánětem — mucopurulent discharge plus marked redness/oedema
- Bakteriální blefarokonjunktivitida
- Post-cataract surgery — antibiotic prophylaxis bundled with steroid for inflammation control
- Post-corneal-transplant regimens — under specialist supervision
- Bacterial keratitis with corneal oedema — specialist setting only; combination only after culture/diagnosis
Dávkování
| Indikace | Dávka |
|---|---|
| Bacterial conjunctivitis with inflammation | 1–2 drops every 4 hours while awake for 7–10 days |
| Severe inflammation (first 24–48 h) | 1–2 drops every 2 hours, then taper |
| Post-cataract surgery | 1 drop QID for 7 days, then taper over 2–4 weeks per surgeon |
| Bacterial keratitis (specialist) | As directed; intensive frequency may be needed |
Tapering is essential — abrupt steroid withdrawal can cause inflammatory rebound. Course length is set by the prescribing ophthalmologist; typical total exposure is 7–14 days, with longer regimens reserved for surgical recovery and reviewed regularly.
Vedlejší účinky
Související se steroidy: elevated intraocular pressure (steroid response — typically appears 2+ weeks into therapy; about 30% of the population are ‘steroid responders’), posterior subcapsular cataract with prolonged use, delayed corneal/conjunctival wound healing, secondary infection from immune suppression (especially fungal and herpetic).
Související s antibiotiky: stinging or burning on instillation (most common), conjunctival hyperaemia, lid margin crusting, foreign body sensation, photophobia, rare hypersensitivity-type reactions.
Všechny alergické reakce: rare but reported. Discontinue if rash, severe itching, or lid swelling develops.
Varování a kontraindikace

- Hypersensitivity to fluoroquinolones or to the corticosteroid
- Children — only with specialist supervision and IOP monitoring
- Těhotenství / kojení — konzultujte s předepisujícím lékařem; lokální absorpce minimální, ale steroid kategorie C
- Otevřený úhel glaukomu — relativní kontraindikace; pečlivě monitorujte nitrooční tlak
- Prolonged use beyond 14 days — escalates all risks above
- Contact-lens wear — stop lenses for the duration of treatment

Často kladené dotazy
When is Gate P Eye Drops the right choice?
Bacterial eye infection where inflammation is contributing significantly to symptoms — classically post-cataract surgery, post-corneal-transplant regimens, or significantly inflamed bacterial conjunctivitis confirmed by your prescriber. If unsure whether the infection is bacterial, antibiotic monotherapy is safer.
Why not always combine an antibiotic with a steroid?
Steroids mask infection signs and accelerate viral and fungal corneal disease. Adding steroid to a missed herpes simplex ulcer or fungal keratitis can blind the eye within days. Always confirm bacterial diagnosis first.
Co je steroidní odpověď?
About 30% of the population have a genetic predisposition to develop elevated intraocular pressure when exposed to topical steroids. Onset is typically 2+ weeks into therapy. Your ophthalmologist should check IOP if you use topical steroid for more than 2 weeks.
How long can I use Gate P Eye Drops?
Most courses are 7–14 days. Post-cataract surgery regimens may extend to 4 weeks with tapering. Indefinite use risks cataract, glaucoma, and opportunistic infection. Always have a defined end-point with ophthalmology review.
Co dělat, když se mi během léčby zhorší zrak?
Přestaňte užívat a vyhledejte stejný den kontrolu u očního lékaře. Zhoršení stavu při léčbě antibiotikem a steroidem je varovným signálem pro přehlédnutou herpetickou, plísňovou nebo amébovou keratitidu.
Is Gate P Eye Drops safe in pregnancy?
Topical absorption is minimal, but the steroid component carries Category C status. Discuss with your prescriber; usually possible with short courses when clearly indicated.
Can children use Gate P Eye Drops?
Pouze pod odborným dohledem s monitorováním IOP. Děti jsou obzvláště náchylné ke steroidem indukovanému šedému zákalu a glaukomu.
Co je bílý sediment, který vidím v oku?
Should be uncommon with Gatifloxacin. If you see crystalline deposits or persistent residue, contact your ophthalmologist.
Co když nosím kontaktní čočky?
Stop lenses during treatment and for at least 24 hours after symptoms resolve. Steroid-mediated immunosuppression makes contact-lens microbial keratitis particularly dangerous.
What if I have a herpes simplex history?
Disclose this clearly to your prescriber. Steroids can reactivate dormant herpes simplex and convert minor flare-ups into vision-threatening keratitis. A different antibiotic-only regimen is safer.
