Genmax Eye Ointment0.30%

Gentamicin 0.3% E/E prep is an antibiotic instilled in the eye to treat bacterial infections of the eye (eg. conjunctivitis). Additionally, it may be instilled in the ear to treat bacterial infections of the ear (eg. otitis externa). Gentamicin 0.3% E/E prep also helps to prevent an infection after eye/ear injury or surgery. It fights the infection by stopping the growth of bacteria. This helps to resolve your symptoms and cure the underlying infection. Follow your doctor's instructions precisely for administering this medicine in the eye/ear. Wait for at least 5 minutes before applying any other medication to the same eye/ear. It should be used regularly at evenly spaced time intervals as prescribed by your doctor. Do not skip any doses and finish the full course of treatment even if you feel better. Stopping the medicine too early may lead to the infection returning or worsening. It is a broad-spectrum type of antibiotic effective in killing many types of bacteria. However, it will not work for other types of eye/ear infections (e.g. viral) and therefore, should only be used if prescribed by your doctor. Unnecessary use of any antibiotic can lead to a decrease in its effectiveness in the future. This medicine may cause some side effects like temporary eye/ear irritation and burning sensation after administration. Consult your doctor if these side effects persist or if your condition worsens. It may cause some short-term blurring of vision. Therefore, do not drive immediately after administering this medicine in the eye. Contact lenses should not be worn while you are using this medicine for an eye infection.
