Description

Dexoren-SP Eye Ointment is a combination of three medicines. It is used in treating bacterial infections of the eyes. It kills the bacteria that cause infection. It also relieves pain, itching, discomfort, and irritation. Dexoren-Sp Eye Ointment 5gm contains Polymyxin B, dexamethasone, and chloramphenicol. Polymyxin B is bactericidal, which kills the bacterial cell by preventing bacterial cell wall formation essential for their survival. Chloramphenicol is bacteriostatic, which prevents bacteria's growth by inhibiting the production of essential proteins necessary for bacteria to grow, multiply, and increase in numbers. Dexamethasone is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation and symptoms associated with infection such as redness and irritation by inhibiting the natural substance like prostaglandins that cause inflammation. Thus it prevents the spread of redness, allergies, inflammation, and bacterial infection in the eyes.
