Directions for Use of Magbrex Eye Drops 5 ML

Wash your hands thoroughly.
Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pouch.
Squeeze the bottle gently to the prescribed amount into the eye pouch, ensuring the Dropsper tip does not touch any surface.
Close your eyes and press your finger on the inside corner of your eye for about 1-2 minutes.
If you are also using other eye drops, wait for at least a few minutes before instilling the next one.

Magbrex Eye Drops 5 ML is instilled topically.

Magbrex Eye Drops 5 ML may have the following common side effects:

Hypersensitivity reactions
Localised ocular toxicity: This might cause itching of the eyelid, swelling of the eyelid, or redness in the white part of your eye.
Burning, stinging or discomfort upon instillation
Anaphylactic reaction: This is a severe allergic reaction that can cause trouble breathing, dizziness, or rash. If this happens, seek immediate medical help.
Stevens-Johnson syndrome and erythema multiforme: These are serious skin conditions that may cause red, painful rashes that can lead to peeling skin.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolves on discontinuing the use of Magbrex Eye Drops 5 ML. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

If you face any discomfort:

Burning or stinging sensation: Try waiting for a few minutes before you open your eyes after instilling Magbrex Eye Drops 5 ML.
Discomfort upon instillation: If you feel uncomfortable after instilling the eye drops, try closing your eyes for a couple of minutes to let it settle.

Magbrex Eye Drops 5 ML contain Tobramycin (0.3%), which works on your body in the following ways:

Inhibits Bacterial Protein Synthesis: Tobramycin blocks the process that bacteria use to create proteins essential for their growth and reproduction.
Alters Cell Membrane Permeability: By interfering with protein synthesis, Tobramycin weakens the bacterial cell membrane, making it more permeable.
Leads to Cell Death: As a result of altered cell membrane permeability and disruption of the cell envelope, the bacterial cells eventually die, thereby reducing the bacterial infection in your eyes.

Pregnancy

If you're expecting, caution is advised while using Magbrex Eye Drops 5 ML. It's best to consult your doctor before you start this medication.

Breastfeeding

Nursing mothers should exercise caution when using Magbrex Eye Drops 5 ML, as it's unknown whether tobramycin is excreted in human milk following topical ophthalmic instillation. It would be wise to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Alcohol

Interactions between alcohol and Magbrex Eye Drops 5 ML are rare, given that it's a topical product. However, you should always consult your doctor if you have any doubts.
