B-Floren Eye Drop

B-Floren Eye Drop is a prescription eye medicine that contains besifloxacin as the active ingredient in each bottle. Besifloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic used to treat certain bacterial eye infections, including bacterial conjunctivitis (pink eye). B-Floren Eye Drop is made by Indoco Remedies and is supplied as an eye drop in a strip/box of 10 bottles. It works only for bacterial infections, not for viral or allergic eye problems.

How it works: Besifloxacin kills susceptible bacteria by blocking the enzymes they need to copy and repair their DNA. When used as an eye drop, it delivers the antibiotic right to the infected eye tissue to help clear the infection.

There are no other strengths or forms of B-Floren Eye Drop listed, so this product is the exact eye-drop presentation intended for use as prescribed. Because it is an eye drop, it can start acting directly at the surface of the eye, and a doctor may choose it when a local antibiotic is needed rather than an oral medicine.

• Bacterial conjunctivitis (pink eye)
• Bacterial eye infection treatment
• Local antibiotic treatment for the eye
• Reducing signs of bacterial eye infection such as redness and discharge

• Wash your hands before using B-Floren Eye Drop.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the eye.
• Do not let the dropper tip touch your eye, fingers, or any surface.
• Close your eye gently for 1 to 2 minutes after instilling the drop.
• If you use other eye medicines, wait at least 5 minutes between products unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Replace the cap tightly after each use and use the bottle only as directed by your prescriber.

B-Floren Eye Drop provides besifloxacin in the labeled eye-drop strength in each bottle, but the exact number of drops and days of treatment are decided by the doctor based on the infection. It is commonly used more than once a day for a short course, and you should not use it more often than prescribed or beyond the maximum daily schedule your doctor gives you.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Besifloxacin may include:

• Mild eye irritation or burning after instillation
• Eye redness
• Eye pain or discomfort
• Itchy eyes
• Blurred vision right after putting in the drop
• Bitter taste in the mouth after eye-drop use

• Use only for bacterial eye infections; it will not treat viral or allergic conjunctivitis.
• Do not wear contact lenses while you have an eye infection unless your doctor says it is safe.
• Temporary blurred vision can happen after using B-Floren Eye Drop, so be careful with driving or machinery until your vision clears.
• Tell your doctor if you have had an allergy to besifloxacin or other fluoroquinolone antibiotics.
• Finish the full course exactly as prescribed, even if the eye looks better sooner.
• If symptoms worsen, do not improve, or new eye pain develops, contact a doctor promptly.
• Do not use the bottle if the seal is broken or if the solution looks cloudy or contaminated.

• Other prescription or over-the-counter eye drops or ointments
• Contact lens solutions and rewetting drops
• Any known allergy to fluoroquinolones such as moxifloxacin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, or ofloxacin
• Medicines that irritate the eye when used together, unless spaced apart as directed

Store B-Floren Eye Drop at room temperature, keep the bottle tightly closed, and protect it from contamination, heat, and freezing.
