Cipro- Cent Eye OIntment

Ciprofloxacin eye ointment is primarily used to treat bacterial conjunctivitis (pink eye), which is an infection of the conjunctiva, the thin membrane covering the white part of the eye and the inner surface of the eyelids. It is effective against certain bacteria that commonly cause eye infections.

Ciprofloxacin eye ointment is generally well-tolerated, but some individuals may experience mild side effects such as temporary blurred vision or mild eye irritation.

Ciprofloxacin eye ointment is typically applied directly onto the affected eye(s) as a thin strip of ointment. The exact frequency and duration of use will depend on the specific condition being treated and the recommendation of your healthcare professional. It's important to follow the prescribed dosage and instructions provided by your healthcare professional or the medication packaging.

Ciprofloxacin works by inhibiting the bacterial enzyme DNA gyrase, which is involved in the replication and repair of bacterial DNA. By interfering with DNA synthesis and replication, ciprofloxacin prevents the growth and spread of bacteria, helping to resolve the infection.
