Zenflox Eye Drops

Product Overview

Zenflox Eye Drops is a medication formulated for ophthalmic use, containing the active ingredient Ofloxacin. It is specifically designed to treat bacterial eye infections by targeting and eliminating the bacteria responsible for the infection. Zenflox Eye Drops is sterile and formulated for safe use in the eyes, providing effective relief from bacterial conjunctivitis and other eye infections.

Uses

Zenflox Eye Drops are used to treat bacterial eye infections such as conjunctivitis (pink eye) and keratitis (inflammation of the cornea). It works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, thereby eliminating the infection and relieving symptoms such as redness, itching, and discharge. Zenflox Eye Drops are only effective against bacterial infections and should not be used to treat viral or fungal eye infections.

How to Use

To use Zenflox Eye Drops, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. Tilt your head back and gently pull down the lower eyelid to create a small pocket. Hold the dropper above the eye and squeeze the prescribed number of drops into the pocket. Close your eyes gently for a few moments to allow the medication to spread evenly over the eye. Avoid touching the dropper tip to prevent contamination.

How it Works

Zenflox Eye Drops contain Ofloxacin, which is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic. When applied to the eyes, Ofloxacin inhibits the activity of bacterial enzymes required for DNA replication and transcription. This disrupts the bacterial cell’s ability to multiply and survive, ultimately leading to bacterial cell death and clearance of the infection.

Dosage and Administration

The dosage of Zenflox Eye Drops and the duration of treatment will be determined by your healthcare provider based on the severity of the infection. Typically, one to two drops are instilled into the affected eye(s) every four to six hours for the first two days, followed by a reduced frequency for the remainder of the treatment course. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully and complete the full course of treatment for best results.
