Moxiblu 5 mL Eye Drop

Moxiblu 5 mL Eye Drop is a prescription moxifloxacin ophthalmic solution used to treat certain bacterial eye infections. Each bottle of Moxiblu 5 mL Eye Drop contains moxifloxacin in a 5 mL eye drop formulation, an antibiotic in the fluoroquinolone class. It works directly in the eye to help clear the infection and reduce symptoms such as redness, discharge, and irritation. This product is for bacterial infections only and will not treat viral or allergic eye problems.

How it works: Moxifloxacin kills susceptible bacteria by blocking enzymes they need to copy and repair their DNA. As an eye drop, Moxiblu 5 mL Eye Drop delivers the antibiotic right to the infected eye, where it can work locally at the site of infection.

Moxiblu 5 mL Eye Drop is a convenient 5 mL bottle size that fits the usual eye-drop treatment course for many people. Because there are no other listed strengths or forms for this brand, the doctor selects this bottle size based on the infection being treated, how long treatment is needed, and how the medicine should be used in the eye.

• Bacterial conjunctivitis
• Bacterial eye infection
• Redness and discharge caused by bacteria
• Treatment of susceptible eye bacteria

• Wash your hands before using Moxiblu 5 mL 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 each drop; do not blink hard or rub the eye.
• If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using the drops and ask your doctor when you can put them back in.
• Use Moxiblu 5 mL Eye Drop exactly as prescribed, and finish the full course even if the eye looks better.

Moxiblu 5 mL Eye Drop provides moxifloxacin in a 5 mL eye-drop bottle; the exact number of drops per dose depends on the product directions and your prescription. The doctor decides how often to use it, but moxifloxacin eye drops are commonly used several times a day for a short course, with no more than the prescribed number of doses per day. Do not change the dose or stop early unless your doctor tells you to.

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