Tobradex Eyedrops (active ingredients: tobramycin and dexamethasone) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Bacterial Eye Infections: Tobradex Eyedrops are used to treat bacterial infections of the eye, such as conjunctivitis and blepharitis, caused by susceptible strains of bacteria.
  2. Inflammation of the Eye: It is also indicated for the treatment of inflammation and swelling associated with ocular conditions, such as post-surgical inflammation or inflammatory conditions of the anterior segment of the eye.

Tobradex Eyedrops belongs to a class of drugs that combines an antibiotic (tobramycin) and a corticosteroid (dexamethasone). The antibiotic works by inhibiting bacterial growth, while the corticosteroid reduces inflammation and swelling in the eye.

Tobradex eye drops are typically used by instilling one drop into the affected eye every 4 to 6 hours, while the patient is awake. The dosage may be increased as needed during the initial 24 to 48 hours of treatment.

To use Tobradex Eye Drops, follow these steps:

  1. Wash your hands thoroughly before using the medication.
  2. Tilt your head back and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
  3. Hold the dropper above the pocket and gently squeeze one drop into the eye.
  4. Release your eyelid and close your eye for a few seconds to allow the medication to spread evenly.
  5. Repeat steps 2-4 if you need to administer multiple drops.
  6. Do not blink or rub your eye after administering the medication.
  7. If you are using other eye medications, wait at least five minutes before applying Tobradex Eye Drops.
  8. Recap the dropper immediately after use to prevent contamination.

The dosing frequency and treatment duration will depend on the severity of your condition and your doctor’s instructions. Follow your doctor’s prescribed dosing schedule and do not stop using the medication without consulting your healthcare provider first.
