Ciloxan Eye Ointment (active ingredient: ciprofloxacin) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Bacterial Conjunctivitis: Ciloxan Eye Ointment is used for the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis, an eye infection caused by susceptible bacteria.
  2. Corneal Ulcers: It is also indicated for the treatment of corneal ulcers, which are open sores on the cornea often resulting from bacterial infections.

Ciloxan Eye Ointment belongs to a class of drugs known as fluoroquinolone antibiotics, which work by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, enzymes essential for bacterial DNA replication and cell division, leading to the elimination of the infection.

Ciloxan Eye Ointment is available only with a doctor’s prescription and should be used as directed. To apply Ciloxan Eye Ointment, begin by washing your hands thoroughly. To prevent contamination, make sure to avoid touching the tip of the tube or letting it touch your eye.

Tilt your head back and pull down your lower eyelid to form a pocket. Squeeze a 1/2-inch (1.5 centimeters) strip of the ointment into the pocket by gently squeezing the tube and be careful to not touch your eye with the tube tip. Close your eyes gently and let the ointment spread evenly over your eye’s surface. Roll your eyeball in all directions to further distribute the medication. Avoid blinking or rubbing your eye. Repeat these steps for your other eye if directed by your doctor. Wipe the tip of the tube with a clean tissue to remove any excess medication and store it properly.

If you are using other eye medications, wait at least 5 minutes before applying Ciloxan Eye Ointment. Continue using the Ointment for the full duration of your treatment, even if your symptoms improve before then, to ensure that the infection clears up completely.

How to Order

How much Ciloxan Eye Ointment can I order at once from a Canadian pharmacy?

When ordering Ciloxan Eye Ointment (ciprofloxacin) from a Canadian pharmacy, you can typically purchase up to a 90-day supply at one time, which is common for prescription medications to ensure adequate management of chronic conditions without frequent refills.

Here’s what you need to know:

Dosage and Quantity: Ciloxan Eye Ointment is generally prescribed in small amounts, such as a 1/2 inch strip of ointment applied to the affected eye.

  • For an acute infection like a corneal ulcer, the ointment is typically applied every 1 to 2 hours while awake for the first 2 days, and then every 4 hours while awake for the next 12 days.
  • For bacterial conjunctivitis, it is typically applied 3 times daily for the first 2 days, then twice daily for the next 5 days.
