About Taflor Eye Drop

TOBRAMYCIN+FLUOROMETHOLONE belongs to ophthalmic eye medications primarily used to treat bacterial eye infections and reduce swelling, itching and redness. Conjunctivitis (pink eye) is a common bacterial eye infection associated with the inflammation or infection of the conjunctiva (white part of the eye) and the inner eyelid.

TOBRAMYCIN+FLUOROMETHOLONE is a combination of two drugs, namely: Tobramycin (antibiotic) and Fluorometholone (corticosteroid). Tobramycin belongs to the class of antibiotics that works by inhibiting the production of essential proteins that are necessary for bacteria to grow, multiply and increase in numbers. Thereby, it destroys bacteria. Fluorometholone belongs to the class of steroids that works by inhibiting the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching and swelling. Thereby, reduces the redness and swelling caused due to bacterial infections.
