• Always remember to wash your hands after each application.

Tromadex 0.3/0.1 % Drops 5 ML is applied topically.

Tromadex 0.3/0.1 % Drops 5 ML is composed of two active ingredients that work in different ways to manage eye infections:

• Dexamethasone (0.1%): This is a potent corticosteroid. It works by reducing the production of substances like prostaglandins and leukotrienes that cause inflammation. This helps to decrease symptoms like redness, swelling, itching, and pain in the infected eye.

• Tobramycin (0.3%): This is an aminoglycoside antibiotic. It works by binding to bacterial ribosomes and interfering with protein synthesis, a process essential for bacterial survival and multiplication. Tobramycin is effective against a wide range of gram-negative and some gram-positive bacteria commonly involved in eye infections.

• Store Tromadex 0.3/0.1 % Drops 5 ML in a cool, dry place where the temperature stays below 25°C.

• Keep it away from direct light and moisture.

• Ensure the bottle is tightly closed when not in use.

• Always keep this medicine out of the reach of children.

• Remember to use the drops before the expiry date printed on the label.

• If you are using Tromadex 0.3/0.1 % Drops 5 ML for managing conditions like conjunctivitis or keratitis, avoid touching your eyes with dirty hands to prevent further infection. Wash your hands regularly with soap and water.

• If you're dealing with blepharitis or styes, consider applying a warm compress to your eyes for relief. This can help lessen swelling and discomfort. Always consult your doctor before trying any new remedies.
