About Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml

Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml belongs to a group of medications called 'Antibiotics and Corticosteroids' used to treat bacterial eye infections or eye discomfort. It is also used in patients who have undergone eye surgeries. It is effectively used to treat eye inflammation caused by allergies, shingles, severe acne, iritis (inflammation of the coloured part of the eye (iris)), uveitis (inflammation of the middle layer of the eye (uvea)), eye injury, radiation, and chemical burns. 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). Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml is used to prevent or treat only bacterial eye infections. It does not work against infections caused by viruses and fungi.

Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml contains two medicines: Moxifloxacin (antibiotic) and Loteprednol (corticosteroid). Moxifloxacin belongs to a class of drugs called fluoroquinolone antibiotics. Moxifloxacin 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 II and IV, which is essential for the growth and survival of the bacterial cell. Loteprednol belongs to the class of corticosteroids. It blocks prostaglandins' production (chemical messengers), making the eye red, swollen, and itchy. Together, Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml prevents the spread of eye infections caused by bacteria and reduces inflammation and pain.

Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml is available in the form of an ophthalmic solution (eye drops). Your doctor will advise on how often you take Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml based on your medical condition. Some common side effects of eye drop formulation of Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml include redness in the eyes, blurred vision, burning or stinging sensation in the eye, and eye discomfort. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time.

Please do not use Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml without consulting your doctor if you have a damaged cornea, ulcers in the eye, eye infection and producing pus, open lesions in the eye, and glaucoma (a condition where the pressure inside the eye is increased). Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before using Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml. Avoid touching the eyedropper with bare hands or taking it closer to the eyelids while administering drops since it contaminates the dropper tip and solution. If you wear contact lenses, please inform your doctor since the Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml may contain additives like Benzalkonium chloride that change the lens's colour. Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml sometimes may make your eye red after administration; in such cases, please avoid wearing a lens until the eye improves. Avoid driving or operating machines since the administration of eye drops of Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml cause blurred vision for a while after use.

Medicinal Benefits

Moxve LP Eye Drops 5 ml is a combination of two medicines: Moxifloxacin and Loteprednol. Moxifloxacin is a fluoroquinolone and broad-spectrum antibiotic.

It reduces symptoms associated with infection, such as redness and irritation of the eye, and decreases the risk of infections.
