Description
Vigoquin-LP Eye Drop is a prescription medicine used to treat eye infections associated with inflammation. It combines two active ingredients: Loteprednol etabonate and Moxifloxacin to effectively treat bacterial infections and relieve inflammation, redness, swelling, and discomfort in the eye.
Key Benefits
- Treats Eye Infections and Inflammation: Vigoquin-LP Eye Drop works by stopping the growth of bacteria and reducing the inflammation in the eye.
- Relieves Symptoms: It helps to reduce symptoms like pain, swelling, redness, itching, and irritation caused by infections and post-surgical inflammation.
- Post-Surgical Swelling: Vigoquin-LP can also be used to reduce swelling after eye surgery.
How It Works
- Loteprednol etabonate (0.5%): This is a steroid that helps reduce inflammation by blocking the production of certain chemicals (prostaglandins) that cause the eye to become red, swollen, and itchy.
- Moxifloxacin (0.5%): An antibiotic that works by preventing the bacteria from dividing and repairing themselves, which ultimately kills the bacteria causing the infection.
This combination of antibiotic and steroid effectively treats the infection and reduces the associated inflammation, providing both immediate relief and long-term healing.
Directions for Use
- External Use Only: Use as prescribed by your doctor.
- Application: Hold the dropper close to your eye without touching it. Gently squeeze the dropper to place the medicine inside the lower eyelid. Wipe off any excess liquid.
- Dosage: Typically used 2-3 times a day or as prescribed by your doctor. Complete the full course even if symptoms improve to prevent the infection from returning.
Common Side Effects
- Eye Irritation: Some temporary discomfort may occur immediately after application.
- Eye Discomfort: Mild discomfort or dryness can occur, which usually resolves on its own.
Safety Information
- For External Use Only: Do not ingest or apply on areas other than the eye.
