Gatipred belongs to a group of medications called ‘Antibiotics and Corticosteroids’ used to treat bacterial eye infections or eye discomfort, especially in patients who have undergone eye surgeries. It also decreases the risk of eye infections such as conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva) and other inflammatory conditions of the eye (cornea, iris, and connective tissue) in postoperative patients. Gatipred is a combination of two medicines: Gatifloxacin and Prednisolone. Gatipred is an antibiotic that acts by interfering with the formation of essential proteins required for bacterial growth. Prednisolone is a steroid that reduces inflammation and symptoms associated with infection such as redness and irritation. It works by inhibiting the chemicals such as prostaglandins that cause inflammation. Gatipred is available for external use only. You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of Gatipred are application site reactions such as redness, burning or stinging sensation, watery eyes, and blurred vision. These side-effects are mild and temporary. It may also cause inflammation of the cornea (clear outer layer of the eye), which is a serious side-effect and may cause vision problems. If any of these side-effects persist, consult your doctor immediately. Inform your doctor before using Gatifloxacin+prednisolone if you have allergic reactions to medicines, tuberculosis, 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). Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before starting Gatifloxacin+prednisolone. This medicine may cause temporary blurred vision; hence drive only when you are alert and have clear vision.

F M N Eye Drops contain Fluorometholone, a corticosteroid used to treat inflammation and other related conditions of the eyes. Here's an overview of its uses: 🔹 Primary Uses Anti-Inflammatory Treatment Fluorometholone is a mild corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation in the eye. It is often prescribed for conditions like conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva), iritis (inflammation of the iris), and uveitis (inflammation of the uvea, the middle layer of the eye). Post-Surgical Inflammation It is commonly used to control inflammation and swelling after eye surgeries, such as cataract surgery or other procedures, to help reduce discomfort and promote healing. Allergic Eye Conditions Fluorometholone may be used for treating allergic reactions that cause eye redness, itching, and swelling, such as in seasonal allergic conjunctivitis or vernal keratoconjunctivitis. Eye Infections (with inflammation) In some cases, it may be used for eye infections that cause inflammation, although it's important to note that it should not be used for infections caused by viruses, fungi, or bacteria unless combined with other appropriate treatments. 🔹 How It Works Fluorometholone is a steroid that works by suppressing the immune response in the eye. It inhibits the production of chemicals called prostaglandins, which are responsible for causing inflammation, swelling, and pain. By reducing inflammation, the drops help relieve symptoms like redness, swelling, and discomfort. ⚠️ Common Side Effects Eye irritation, burning, or stinging upon application Blurred vision (usually temporary) Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) with prolonged use, which may lead to glaucoma or cataract formation Redness or dryness of the eyes Sensitivity to light (photophobia) Watering eyes 🔹 Usage Tips Dosage: Typically, 1-2 drops are applied to the affected eye(s), 2 to 4 times a day, or as prescribed by your doctor. Application Instructions: Wash your hands thoroughly before applying the drops. Tilt your head back and gently pull down the lower eyelid to form a small pocket. Place 1 drop in the pocket, and then gently close your eye and blink a few times to spread the medication evenly across the eye. If using other eye medications, wait 5–10 minutes between each. Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before applying the drops and wait 15 minutes before reinserting them. 🔹 Precautions Infections: Avoid using Fluorometholone if you have an active eye infection (especially viral or fungal), as corticosteroids can suppress the immune response and worsen infections. Eye Pressure: Fluorometholone can increase the intraocular pressure (IOP) over time, which may lead to glaucoma. It is important to monitor IOP regularly if used long-term. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor before using this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as corticosteroids should be used cautiously in these situations. Prolonged Use: Long-term use of corticosteroid eye drops should be under close supervision of a healthcare provider, as it can lead to complications like cataracts or glaucoma.

Cyclopentolate Hydrochloride & Dexamethasone Ophthalmic Solution USP (Cyclopan-D) is a combination eye drop used for specific eye conditions involving both inflammation and pupil dilation. Here's a breakdown of its uses: 🔹 Primary Uses Treatment of Uveitis (Inflammation of the Uvea) Cyclopentolate dilates the pupil, helping to alleviate pain associated with inflammation in the eye. Dexamethasone, a corticosteroid, reduces inflammation. Post-Operative Inflammation and Pain Relief After eye surgeries (e.g., cataract surgery), this combination helps manage inflammation and promotes healing. Pupil Dilation for Diagnostic Purposes Used before certain eye exams or surgeries to dilate the pupil for better visibility and assessment of the eye's interior. 🔹 How It Works Cyclopentolate Hydrochloride: A muscarinic antagonist that causes pupil dilation (mydriasis) by blocking the action of acetylcholine on the muscles in the iris, which normally constrict the pupil. Dexamethasone: A potent corticosteroid that reduces inflammation by suppressing the immune response and inhibiting the production of inflammatory chemicals. Together, they reduce pain, control inflammation, and help improve vision in certain conditions by dilating the pupil and promoting healing. ⚠️ Common Side Effects Temporary blurred vision (due to pupil dilation) Stinging or burning after application Increased intraocular pressure (with prolonged use of dexamethasone) Sensitivity to light (from dilated pupil) Dryness or irritation in the eye 🔹 Usage Instructions Frequency: Follow your doctor's prescribed schedule, typically 1–2 drops in the affected eye(s) up to 4 times a day (especially for inflammation). For pupil dilation, it's usually a single application before the procedure or exam. Application Tips: Wash your hands before use. Tilt your head back and gently pull down the lower eyelid to form a pocket. Drop the medication into the pocket without touching the dropper to the eye. Close your eye gently and blink to spread the solution. If you have multiple eye drops to use, wait at least 5–10 minutes between applications. Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before using this drop and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting. 🔹 Precautions Long-term Use: Dexamethasone can increase intraocular pressure and lead to glaucoma or cataract formation with prolonged use, so it should be used cautiously. Allergic Reactions: Inform your doctor if you're allergic to steroids, anticholinergic drugs, or any ingredients in this eye drop. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult with a healthcare provider before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
