How It Works
Opthodex N Eye Drop is a combination of Neomycin and Dexamethasone. Neomycin is an antibiotic that halts bacterial growth by interfering with protein synthesis in bacteria, which is essential for their survival and multiplication. Dexamethasone, a steroid, reduces eye inflammation by inhibiting the production of chemicals (prostaglandins) that cause redness, swelling, and irritation in the eye.
