Tobrex eye ointment is a topical antibiotic used for treating bacterial infections of the eye. It contains tobramycin, which is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that works by inhibiting the production of proteins necessary for the survival of bacteria, thereby stopping the infection.
How is this medication used?
To use Tobrex eye ointment, wash your hands first. Tilt your head back and pull down the lower eyelid to make a pouch. Apply a small amount (about 1 cm) of ointment into the pouch. Gently close the eyes and move the eyeball in all directions to spread the ointment. Try not to blink and do not rub the eye. Repeat these steps if your dose is for more than one strip of ointment. Wash your hands after applying the ointment.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects of Tobrex eye ointment include temporary eye irritation, redness, and discomfort. Some people may experience blurred vision immediately after applying the ointment. Rarely, it can cause serious allergic reactions or further infection if bacteria are resistant to the antibiotic.
What are the potential interactions?
Interactions with Tobrex eye ointment can occur with other topical eye medications. It is important to wait at least 10 minutes before applying any other eye medication. The effectiveness of Tobrex can be diminished if used with other antibiotics or corticosteroids. Always inform your healthcare provider about all the medications and supplements you are taking to avoid potential interactions.
