How it works
Prednate DM Eye Drop is a combination of two medicines: Moxifloxacin and Difluprednate. Moxifloxacin is an antibiotic that prevents bacterial cells from dividing and repairing, thereby killing the bacteria. This treats your eye infection. Difluprednate is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the eye red, swollen, and itchy.
Quick Tips
Prednate DM Eye Drop is used for the treatment of bacterial infection and inflammation of the eye. Do not skip any doses and finish the full course of treatment even if you feel better. Stopping it early may make the infection come back and harder to treat. Do not touch the tip to any surface to avoid contamination. Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication to avoid dilution. It may cause short term blurring of vision when first used. Use caution before driving or using machines. Do not wear contact lenses until your infection clears up. Do not use it more often or for longer than advised by your doctor. Inform your doctor if your condition hasn't improved after seven days of treatment. Make sure to use within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
