Optiflox 0.3% Eye Drops 5ml is a prescription ophthalmic antibiotic containing Ofloxacin 0.3% to treat bacterial eye infections including conjunctivitis, corneal ulcers and blepharitis. Manufactured by Jamjoom Pharma, this sterile ophthalmic solution delivers a broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone directly to the affected eye, helping clear infection quickly while easing redness, irritation and discharge. Available in a 5ml dropper bottle at MedX Pharmacy across the UAE.
How It Works
Ofloxacin is a second-generation fluoroquinolone antibiotic that works by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, two enzymes essential for bacterial DNA replication and repair. By blocking these enzymes, Optiflox stops sensitive bacteria from multiplying and clears the infection at its source. The eye drop format delivers the medicine directly to the ocular surface, providing rapid local action with minimal systemic absorption.
Important Information
This is a prescription-only medicine. Always consult your healthcare provider before use, especially during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Do not wear contact lenses during treatment as they may worsen the infection. Avoid driving until vision is clear, as drops may cause temporary blurring. Stop use and seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe pain, vision changes or signs of an allergic reaction. Store below 30°C, away from direct sunlight, and discard 28 days after opening. Shop Optiflox 0.3% Eye Drops at MedX Pharmacy with fast UAE delivery.
