Ritemox 0.5% Eye Drops 5 ml contains Moxifloxacin, a bactericidal agent that kills bacteria, causing a wide range of infections. It works by stopping bacteria's ability to copy their genetic material (DNA), which stops them from reproducing and ultimately kills them.
Use Ritemox 0.5% Eye Drops 5 ml as directed by your doctor, in the dose and duration advised. In some cases, you may experience common side effects, such as dry eyes, watery eyes, eye pain or discomfort, blurred vision, redness, itching, and eye irritation. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and usually resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.
