Tobrocim-Next combi Indications

Inflammation of the eye in steroid-sensitive patients who are indicated for the use of corticosteroids and have a superficial bacterial infection or a risk of developing a bacterial eye infection. These inflammatory processes can occur after surgery (cataract removal) or can be caused by an infection, a foreign body in the eye, or an eye injury.

Contradictions

· Hypersensitivity to the active substances or to any component of the drug.

· Keratitis caused by herpes simplex virus.

· Cowpox, chickenpox and other viral infections of the cornea and conjunctiva.

· Fungal diseases of the eye structures or untreated parasitic eye infections.

· Mycobacterial eye infections.

· Untreated purulent eye infections. 

Dosage & Administration

For ophthalmic use.

A small amount of ointment (a strip about 1.5 cm long) should be applied to the conjunctival sac (bags) of the affected eye (s) up to 3 or 4 times a day. The frequency of drug use should be gradually reduced as clinical signs improve. Care should be taken not to discontinue therapy prematurely.

Eye ointment can be used at night in combination with the use of eye drops containing tobramycin and dexamethasone during the day.

After applying the ointment, it is recommended to carefully close the eyelids. This reduces the systemic absorption of the drug injected into the eye, which reduces the likelihood of systemic side effects.

It is recommended to constantly monitor the intraocular pressure.
