Polmichem C Eye Drop belongs to a combination of medicines called 'antibiotics,' primarily used to treat bacterial infections of the eye. Bacterial eye infection occurs when harmful bacteria enter any part of the eyeball or surrounding tissues, including the cornea (front surface of the eye) and the lining of the outer eye and inner eyelids (conjunctiva).

Polmichem C Eye Drop is a combination of two antibiotics, namely: Polymyxin B and Chloramphenicol. Polymyxin B is bactericidal, killing bacteria by preventing the formation of bacterial cell walls, which are essential for their survival. Chloramphenicol is bacteriostatic, which prevents bacterial growth by inhibiting the production of essential proteins necessary for bacterial growth and multiplication. Polmichem C Eye Drop prevents the spread of eye infections caused by a wide range of gram-negative bacteria.

Polmichem C Eye Drop is a combination of two antibiotics: Polymyxin B and Chloramphenicol. It is used to treat bacterial infections of the eye, like conjunctivitis. Polymyxin B is bactericidal (kills bacteria) in nature, inhibiting bacterial cell wall formation required for their survival. Thus, it prevents the entry of unwanted substances into the cells and stops the leakage of cell contents. Chloramphenicol is bacteriostatic (prevents bacterial growth) in nature, with excellent eye penetration, and exhibits broad-spectrum coverage against various bacteria that cause eye infections by inhibiting the protein synthesis process required for bacterial survival.
