Moxicon 0.5 % Eye Drop 5 Ml contain moxifloxacin (0.5%), which has the following effects on your body:

• Inhibition of Essential Bacterial Enzymes: Moxifloxacin works by selectively inhibiting two vital enzymes in bacterial cells DNA gyrase (topoisomerase II) and topoisomerase IV. By inhibiting these enzymes, moxifloxacin obstructs the replication and spread of bacteria. This activity helps in managing the infection effectively.

• Store Moxicon 0.5 % Eye Drop 5 Ml at room temperature.

• Keep the bottle away from direct light and moisture to maintain its effectiveness.

• Always keep the medicine out of reach of children.

• Maintain good eye hygiene by washing your hands frequently and avoiding touching your eyes unnecessarily.

• Avoid sharing towels or make-up items, as this could spread the infection to others.

• If you wear contact lenses, avoid them if you have symptoms of bacterial conjunctivitis. The preservative in Moxicon 0.5 % Eye Drop 5 Ml, benzalkonium chloride, may be absorbed by soft contact lenses, which can cause eye irritation.
