Whats That
Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml consists of a combination of an eye medication containing antibiotic and corticosteroid, primarily used to treat bacterial infections, including conjunctivitis/pink eye. It also decreases the risk of eye infections such as conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva) and other eye inflammatory conditions (cornea, iris, and connective tissue) in postoperative patients. A bacterial eye infection occurs when bacteria invade any part of the eyeball or its surrounding tissues, including the cornea (clear front surface of the eye) and the conjunctiva (thin membrane lining the outer eye and inner eyelids). A bacterial eye infection symptoms include red eyes, pain, swelling of eyes, watery eyes, itching, and blurry vision.
Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml contains Gatifloxacin (antibiotic) and Loteprednol (corticosteroid). Gatifloxacin is an antibiotic that helps treat and prevent a wide range of bacterial infections. It kills bacteria (bactericidal action) by preventing the synthesis of enzymes, namely DNA gyrase and Topoisomerase IV, which is essential for the growth and survival of the bacterial cell. Loteprednol is a corticosteroid with anti-inflammatory properties and acts by inhibiting the chemicals such as prostaglandins production (chemical messengers) that make the eye red, swollen, and itchy. It reduces symptoms associated with infection, such as redness and irritation of the eye, and decreases the risk of infections.
Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml is for external use only. Use Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml as prescribed by your doctor. Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml is only for use in the eyes. Do not swallow or inject Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml. You are advised to use Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml for as long as your doctor has prescribed it based on your medical condition. If you wear contact lenses or are wearing them, remove them before using Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml, and you can put them back 15 minutes after using Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml. You may experience watery eyes, irritation in the eyes, and eye itching, in some cases. Most of these side effects of Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml are temporary, do not require medical attention, and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.
Do not take Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml if you are allergic to antibiotics, corticosteroids or any ingredient of Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml. Put Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml only if the doctor prescribes you. It would help if you did not stop taking Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml abruptly, as it may worsen your symptoms. Also, do not put more than the prescribed dose of Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml, as it may cause glaucoma or optic nerve damage. Do not take any other eye medication with Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml without consulting your doctor. The use of loteprednol in Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml after cataract surgery is known to slow the surgery's healing process, so it is given in a very minimum dose. If you have or ever had glaucoma (increased eye pressure), herpes simplex infection, or any other eye problem, are pregnant or breastfeeding, do not take Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml until prescribed by your doctor.
Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml is a combination of two drugs: Gatifloxacin (antibiotic) and Loteprednol (corticosteroid). Gatifloxacin belongs to the group of medicines called fluoroquinolone antibiotics used to treat bacterial infections, including conjunctivitis (pinkeye). It kills bacteria (bactericidal action) by preventing the synthesis of enzymes, namely DNA gyrase and Topoisomerase IV, which is essential for the growth and survival of the bacterial cell. Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml has a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against aerobic gram-positive and aerobic gram-negative bacteria (that live in oxygen). Loteprednol is a corticosteroid that works by blocking prostaglandins (a chemical messenger) in the brain, making the eye red, swollen and itchy. As a result, it reduces symptoms associated with infection, such as redness and irritation of the eye, and decreases the risk of infections. Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml is used to prevent or treat only bacterial eye infections.
Do not take Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml if you are allergic or have had a severe reaction to the quinolone or fluoroquinolone antibiotics and corticosteroids or any of the ingredients of Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml. Please inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before starting Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml. Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml is not recommended for children below one year of age as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Do not stop taking Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml even if you feel better without asking your doctor, as your symptoms may come back and may even worsen your condition. Please do not take more than the prescribed dose of Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml as it may cause glaucoma, increase the risk of cataracts (clouding of the eye), and secondary infection. To avoid any contamination, avoid touching the tip of the dropper. Do not put to eye medication simultaneously; wait for at least 10 minutes before putting in the second medication. If you have or have ever had glaucoma (increased eye pressure), herpes simplex infection, or any other eye problem, do not take Gatiray L Eye Drops 5 ml until prescribed by your doctor. Prolonged use of corticosteroids may result in glaucoma with damage to the optic nerve and defects in visual acuity and fields of vision. If this product is used for ten days or longer, intraocular pressure (IOP) should be monitored.
