Gatilox DM Eye Drops 5 ml belongs to a group of medications called ‘Antibiotics and Corticosteroids’ used in the treatment of bacterial eye infections or eye discomfort, especially in patients who have undergone eye surgeries. It also decreases the risk of eye infections such as conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva) and other inflammatory conditions of the eye (cornea, iris, and connective tissue) in postoperative patients.
Gatilox DM Eye Drops 5 ml is a combination of two medicines: Gatifloxacin and Dexamethasone. Gatifloxacin is an antibiotic that acts by interfering with the formation of essential proteins required for bacterial growth. Dexamethasone is a steroid that reduces inflammation and symptoms associated with infection such as redness and irritation. It works by inhibiting the chemicals such as prostaglandins that cause inflammation.
You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of Gatilox DM Eye Drops 5 ml are red eyes, eye pain, dry eye, watery eyes, and change in taste. Eye drops may also cause temporary blurred vision. In addition, it may cause inflammation of the cornea (clear outer layer of the eye), which is a serious side-effect and may cause vision problems. If any of these side-effects persist, consult your doctor immediately.
Do not take Gatilox DM Eye Drops 5 ml if you are allergic to Gatifloxacin, Dexamethasone, other fluoroquinolone antibiotics, or any contents of it. Before taking Gatilox DM Eye Drops 5 ml, inform your doctor if you are diagnosed with any fungal infections, viral infections such as herpes simplex or varicella, or parasitic infections such as amoebiasis. Do not use Gatilox DM Eye Drops 5 ml if you have tuberculosis, damaged cornea, ulceration, open lesions with incomplete formation of the covering tissue, and increased pressure inside the eye.
Gatilox DM Eye Drops 5 ml is a combination of two medicines: Gatifloxacin and Dexamethasone. Gatifloxacin is a fluoroquinolone and broad-spectrum antibiotic. It can act against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. It acts by interfering with the formation of essential proteins required for bacterial growth. Dexamethasone is a corticosteroid that has anti-inflammatory properties and acts by inhibiting the chemicals such as prostaglandins that cause inflammation. It also reduces symptoms associated with infection such as redness and irritation of the eye and also decreases the risk of infections.
Before taking Gatilox DM Eye Drops 5 ml, inform your doctor if you have vision problems, severe pain in the eye, glaucoma (raised pressure in the eye), eye injury, or have undergone eye surgery or using any other eye drops or eye ointment. Inform your doctor immediately if you notice swelling or weight gain around the trunk or in the face, as it may be a sign of Cushing’s syndrome (high levels of cortisol in the body). Do not use eye drops for longer than recommended by your doctor as it may suppress adrenal gland function and may increase the risk of cataracts (clouding of the eye) and also increases the risk of a second infection.
Drug-Drug Interactions: Gatilox DM Eye Drops 5 ml may interact with other quinolone antibiotics (ciprofloxacin, enoxacin, levofloxacin, and moxifloxacin, etc.), an antiviral drug (ritonavir), and a medication used to treat HIV (cobicistat).

Drug-Disease Interactions: Inform your doctor if you have fungal infections, viral infections (herpes simplex or varicella), parasitic infections (amoebiasis), tuberculosis, damaged cornea, ulceration, and glaucoma (increased pressure inside the eye) before using Gatilox DM Eye Drops 5 ml.
It is advised to contact your doctor if the infection symptoms persist or worsen after two weeks of treatment.
Bacterial eye infections: Bacterial eye infections are the common eye problems seen in a primary care setting. The common eye problems are conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva), stye (bump on the eyelid), and keratitis (inflammation of the cornea). The risk for eye infection is high in post-operative patients or patients who have undergone Lasik, cataract, or other eye surgeries.
