Oxcin D Eye Drop

Oxcin D Eye Drop is a combination medication containing moxifloxacin and dexamethasone. Moxifloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic used to treat bacterial eye infections, while dexamethasone is a corticosteroid that helps to reduce inflammation and relieve symptoms such as redness, swelling, and itching. Oxcin D Eye Drop is formulated to provide both antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects for the treatment of various eye conditions.

Key Ingredients:

• Moxifloxacin: Moxifloxacin belongs to the fluoroquinolone class of antibiotics and works by inhibiting bacterial DNA synthesis, thereby killing susceptible bacteria responsible for causing eye infections.
• Dexamethasone: Dexamethasone is a corticosteroid that helps to suppress inflammation by inhibiting the production of inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes.

• Treat bacterial eye infections, including conjunctivitis (pink eye) and keratitis (corneal inflammation).
