Apdrops DM 5 ml with Moxifloxacin + Dexamethasone

What is Apdrops DM

Apdrops DM Eye Drops are used to treat eye bacterial infections and reduce inflammation, especially after surgery. They contain a combination of Moxifloxacin and Dexamethasone, an antibiotic and a steroid. Ajanta Pharma Ltd manufactures Apdrops DM.

Apdrops works through the combined actions of its active ingredients. Moxifloxacin inhibits certain chemicals required for bacterial DNA maintenance, leading to the death of bacteria that cause infection. Dexamethasone, a steroid, prevents the release of substances that cause inflammation, such as swelling, heat, and redness. Thus, Apdrops provide both antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects.

Apdrops treat bacterial eye infections like conjunctivitis and manage redness, swelling, pain, and inflammation after eye surgery. They are meant for external use in the eye only; do not ingest them. Common side effects include eye irritation, blurred vision, headache, and dizziness.

Before using Apdrops, inform your doctor about any allergies or other medications. Avoid touching the dropper to prevent contamination. Use with caution if you have glaucoma or a history of steroid-induced complications; regular eye check-ups are recommended. While there are no significant drug-drug or drug-food interactions reported, it’s important to inform your doctor about all medicines you are taking.
