Introduction
Gentoson Eye/Ear Drops helps to prevent and treat bacterial infections in the eye or ear. It works by stopping the growth of bacteria, which helps to resolve symptoms and cure the underlying infection. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions precisely for administering this medicine. Use it regularly at evenly spaced intervals and complete the full course of treatment even if you feel better. Stopping the medicine too early may lead to the infection returning or worsening. This medicine may cause temporary eye/ear irritation and a burning sensation after administration. Consult your doctor if these side effects persist or if your condition worsens. It may also cause short-term blurring of vision, so do not drive immediately after administering it in the eye. Contact lenses should not be worn while using this medicine for an eye infection.

Hold the dropper close to the eye/ear without touching it. Gently squeeze the dropper and place the medicine inside the lower eyelid or ear. Wipe off extra liquid.
How it works

Quick Tips
Gentoson Eye/Ear Drops helps treat bacterial infections of the eye/ear. Do not skip any doses and finish the full course of treatment even if you feel better. Do not touch the tip to any surface or to your eye/ear to avoid contamination. Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye/ear to avoid dilution. Inform your doctor if your symptoms do not improve within two days of starting treatment, if they get worse during treatment, or if you get another eye/ear infection. Make sure to use within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
