About Besibact Eye Drop
Besibact Eye Drop belongs to the class of ophthalmic medications called fluoroquinolone antibiotics, primarily used to treat bacterial infections, including conjunctivitis/pink eye. Conjunctivitis is the infection of the outer white membrane of the eyeball. This infection is highly contagious and can pass from one person to another. Signs and symptoms include pink or red-toned eyes, a gritty feeling in the eyes, itchiness in the eye areas, teary eyes, and thick discharge around the eyes.
Besibact Eye Drop contains Besifloxacin, which helps treat and prevent a wide range of bacterial infections. It kills bacteria (bactericidal action) by preventing the synthesis of enzymes, specifically DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, which are essential for bacterial cell growth and survival. Besibact Eye Drop has a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity against both aerobic Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.
Besibact Eye Drop is available for ophthalmic use only. You are advised to use Besibact Eye Drop for as long as your doctor has prescribed it, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects, such as eye irritation, eye redness, pain during administration, and blurred vision. Most of these side effects of Besibact Eye Drop do not require medical attention and typically resolve on their own over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Do not take Besibact Eye Drop on your own, as self-medication may lead to antibiotic resistance, in which antibiotics fail to act against specific bacterial infections. You should not wear contact lenses while you have symptoms of bacterial conjunctivitis or while you are applying Besibact Eye Drop. Consult your doctor before using Besibact Eye Drop if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Besibact Eye Drop should be used with caution in children. It is not recommended for use in newborns. Besibact Eye Drop may cause temporary vision problems (blurred vision), so be cautious while driving and operating machinery.
