Moxluv 5 mL Eye Drop

Moxluv 5 mL Eye Drop is a prescription eye drop that contains moxifloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic used to treat certain bacterial eye infections. Each 5 mL bottle of Moxluv 5 mL Eye Drop delivers moxifloxacin in eye-drop form for direct use in the eye, where it helps clear infection at the site. It is commonly used for bacterial conjunctivitis and other bacterial eye infections when a clinician decides an antibiotic eye drop is appropriate. Moxluv 5 mL Eye Drop is not for viral or allergic eye problems.

How it works: Moxifloxacin works by blocking bacterial enzymes the germs need to copy and repair their DNA. In Moxluv 5 mL Eye Drop, this action happens right on the eye surface, helping stop the bacteria causing the infection from growing and spreading.

Moxluv 5 mL Eye Drop is supplied as a 5 mL bottle, which is a practical size for a typical treatment course of this eye-drop medicine. Because there are no other strengths or forms listed for this brand, the main difference here is the bottle size and the convenience of having enough solution for the prescribed schedule. A doctor may choose Moxluv 5 mL Eye Drop when a local antibiotic that reaches the eye directly is needed.

• Use Moxluv 5 mL Eye Drop only in the eye as prescribed; do not swallow it.
• Wash your hands before and after each dose.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the pocket of the eye.

• Finish the full course even if your eye feels better earlier.

Moxluv 5 mL Eye Drop provides 5 mL of moxifloxacin eye-drop solution in each bottle, and the exact number of drops per dose depends on your prescriber’s directions. It is often used several times per day at first, then may be reduced as the infection improves, but the maximum daily amount should be set by the doctor. Use only the schedule your clinician gives, since the correct dose for Moxluv 5 mL Eye Drop depends on the eye condition being treated.

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