Methachlor 5ml Eye Drops - Antibiotic and Steroid Combination for Eye Infections
Methachlor 5ml Eye Drops is a prescription ophthalmic solution combining chloramphenicol, a broad-spectrum antibiotic, with dexamethasone, a corticosteroid. This dual-action combination is used to treat bacterial eye infections accompanied by inflammation, such as bacterial conjunctivitis, blepharitis and post-surgical eye inflammation when bacterial contamination is suspected.
Chloramphenicol stops the growth of infection-causing bacteria, while dexamethasone reduces redness, swelling and discomfort by suppressing the inflammatory response. The result is faster symptom relief while the underlying infection is being controlled. Methachlor is intended for short-term use under the supervision of an eye specialist.

How to Use
Wash your hands before use. Tilt your head back and instill 1 to 2 drops into the affected eye every few hours as prescribed by your doctor. Avoid touching the dropper tip to your eye, lashes or any surface. Use the full course as advised by your doctor, even if symptoms improve, and do not exceed the prescribed duration because of the steroid component.
Important Safety Information
Prescription required. Not for viral, fungal or allergic eye conditions. Prolonged use of steroid-containing eye drops may raise eye pressure (glaucoma), thin the cornea or increase the risk of secondary eye infections. Chloramphenicol is associated with very rare bone marrow effects, including aplastic anaemia. Avoid contact lenses during treatment. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or have glaucoma. Discard the bottle within 28 days of opening.
