Molfox DF Eye Drop is used to treat bacterial infections of the eye. Bacterial eye infection occurs when harmful bacteria invade any part of the eye, such as the eyeball, conjunctiva, or cornea. Symptoms of an infection include red eye, pain, discharge, watery/dry eyes, swelling, itching, and sensitivity to light. Molfox DF Eye Drop does not treat fungal or viral infections of the eye.
Molfox DF Eye Drop is a combination of two drugs, namely: Difluprednate (steroid) and Moxifloxacin (antibiotic). Difluprednate blocks the chemical messengers that cause swelling, itching, and redness. Moxifloxacin kills the bacteria by preventing them from dividing and repairing themselves. Together, Molfox DF Eye Drop helps in treating bacterial infection of the eye.
