Product Details

Nebra Eye Ointment 5g contains Tobramycin, a potent broad-spectrum antibiotic belonging to the aminoglycoside class. Tobramycin works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, preventing the growth and spread of bacteria. The ointment is designed for easy application to the eyes, targeting bacterial infections with precision and speed. It is particularly useful for patients suffering from external eye infections.

Purposes

The primary purpose of Nebra Eye Ointment 5g is to treat bacterial infections of the outer part of the eye, such as conjunctivitis and blepharitis. The active ingredient, Tobramycin, kills bacteria by preventing them from building essential proteins needed for survival. Nebra Eye Ointment provides rapid relief from discomfort caused by bacterial infections and helps reduce symptoms such as redness, irritation, and swelling.

Warnings

Warning 1: Ensure the tip of the ointment tube does not come into contact with any surface, including your eye, to prevent contamination.

Warning 2: If you are transitioning from Nebra Eye Ointment to a new medication, follow your doctor’s instructions carefully regarding when to discontinue one treatment and begin another.

Warning 3: If you accidentally apply more than the recommended amount, rinse your eyes immediately with lukewarm water and seek medical advice if necessary.

Adverse Effects

Common side effects of Nebra Eye Ointment 5g include mild eye irritation, increased tearing, and redness. In some cases, patients may experience allergic reactions like itching, swelling, or hives. More serious but rare side effects can include difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, or loss of eyelashes. If any severe reactions occur, discontinue use and consult your healthcare provider.
