CIPVISION TIBOCLORICUS EYE OINTMENT

CIPVISION TIBOCLORICUS Eye Ointment is a Tobramycin Ophthalmic Ointment USP manufactured by Steris Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. It is a broad-spectrum ophthalmic antibiotic used to treat bacterial eye infections caused by susceptible microorganisms. Tobramycin belongs to the aminoglycoside class of antibiotics and works by stopping the growth of bacteria, helping clear the infection and relieve associated symptoms.

Bacterial eye infections can cause redness, swelling, irritation, itching, discharge, crusting of the eyelids, and discomfort. If left untreated, these infections may lead to more serious complications affecting eye health. CIPVISION TIBOCLORICUS Eye Ointment delivers Tobramycin directly to the site of infection, providing targeted antibacterial action with minimal systemic absorption.

This medicine should be used only under the supervision of an ophthalmologist or healthcare professional. It is not effective against viral, fungal, or allergic eye conditions.

Composition

Each gram contains:

• Tobramycin Ophthalmic Ointment USP

What is CIPVISION TIBOCLORICUS Eye Ointment Used For?

CIPVISION TIBOCLORICUS is indicated for the treatment of bacterial infections affecting the eye, including:

• Bacterial conjunctivitis (Pink Eye)
• Blepharitis (bacterial eyelid infection)
• Blepharoconjunctivitis
• Superficial bacterial infections of the conjunctiva and eyelids
• Corneal bacterial infections (as advised by an ophthalmologist)
• Prevention of bacterial infection following certain eye procedures, when prescribed

Your doctor will determine whether this medicine is suitable based on the type of infection and the bacteria involved.

How Does Tobramycin Ophthalmic Ointment Work?

Tobramycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic that works by binding to the 30S ribosomal subunit of susceptible bacteria. This action blocks bacterial protein synthesis, preventing the bacteria from growing and multiplying. As bacterial growth is stopped, the body's immune system can effectively eliminate the infection.

Since the ointment is applied directly to the eye, it provides localized treatment, helping achieve effective concentrations at the site of infection while minimizing systemic exposure.
