TobGrev-DX

Details




Tobramycin + Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Ophthalmic Solution comes with the brand name “TOB GREV – DX”  which is a combination of one antibiotic and one corticosteroid used to treat bacterial eye and ear infections. It is used to treat eye infections such as conjunctivitis (infection of the outer white membrane of the eyeball), corneal ulcers (ulcer that occurs in the transplant membrane of the eye called the cornea), acute bacterial otitis media (an infection of the middle ear), and otitis externa (an infection in the ear canal). Eye infections are contagious and can pass from one to another. Signs and symptoms include pink or red-toned eyes, itching in areas of eyes, teary eyes, thick discharge around eyes/ears, ear discomfort, etc.

Tobramycin + Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate Ophthalmic Solution is a combination medicine that contains Tobramycin and sodium Dexamethasone. Tobramycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that inhibits the growth of bacteria by interfering with protein synthesis and leads to cell death. Sodium Dexamethasone is a corticosteroid medicine that reduces swelling and redness by preventing infection-fighting white blood cells (WBCs).
