Composition

Indications

Orbidex T Eye Drop is indicated for:

• Bacterial conjunctivitis with inflammation
• Blepharitis with secondary bacterial infection

Mechanism of Action

• Tobramycin binds to the 30S ribosomal subunit of bacteria, inhibiting protein synthesis and resulting in bacterial cell death. It is effective against a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative organisms.

Together, they provide dual-action therapy for infection control and inflammation relief.
