• Benzalkonium Chloride (0.02 % v/v): Benzalkonium Chloride is a quaternary ammonium compound which functions as an antiseptic. It disrupts bacterial cell membranes, inhibiting the growth of bacteria and aiding in preserving the medicine.
• Flurbiprofen (0.03 % w/v): Flurbiprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that helps reduce pain and inflammation in the eye. It works by inhibiting the release of specific chemical messengers responsible for redness, swelling, and discomfort.
