About Mo-4 Dx Eye Drop 5 ml

Mo-4 Dx Eye Drop 5 ml belongs to the class of antibiotics used to treat inflammation associated with bacterial eye infections. It treats eye infections like conjunctivitis (infected conjunctiva) and other inflammatory conditions after eye surgery.

Moxifloxacin is an antibiotic that stops bacteria from making a copy of their genetic material (DNA), thereby killing and preventing the growth of bacterial infection.

Thus, together, Mo-4 Dx Eye Drop 5 ml prevents the spread of redness, allergies, inflammation and bacterial infection in the eyes. 

You should use this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side effects of Mo-4 Dx Eye Drop 5 ml are a burning/stinging sensation or redness at the application site and temporary blurred vision. While using eye drops, if swelling or sensitivity to light occurs, wash your eyes thoroughly with cold water after 15 minutes. If the condition does not improve, consult your doctor immediately.
