Tobramycin/dexamethasone ophthalmic suspension is a prescription eye drop used to treat bacterial eye infections and reduce associated inflammation. It combines two medications: tobramycin, an antibiotic that stops bacterial growth, and dexamethasone, a corticosteroid that reduces swelling and irritation. This combination helps relieve symptoms like redness, pain, and discharge while preventing further damage to the eye. It is typically used several times a day for a short duration as directed by a healthcare provider.

  • Tobramycin & Dexamethasone Eye Drops Medication Description

    Tobramycin/dexamethasone ophthalmic suspension is a dual-action medication designed to treat bacterial infections of the eye while simultaneously reducing inflammation. Tobramycin, the antibiotic component, targets and inhibits bacterial protein synthesis, effectively halting the growth of common ocular pathogens. Dexamethasone, the steroid component, mitigates the body’s inflammatory response, helping to relieve symptoms such as redness, swelling, and discomfort. This combination is particularly useful in managing post-surgical inflammation or infections where both antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory actions are needed. It is typically prescribed for short-term use, as prolonged exposure to corticosteroids can lead to complications such as increased intraocular pressure, glaucoma, or cataract formation. Proper administration technique—including shaking the bottle, avoiding contamination, and adhering to dosing schedules—is essential for safety and effectiveness. Patients should be monitored for signs of secondary infections or steroid-related side effects during treatment.
  • Tobramycin & Dexamethasone Eye Drops Side Effects

    Common side effects of tobramycin/dexamethasone ophthalmic suspension include mild eye irritation, redness, and temporary blurred vision. Some patients may experience eyelid swelling or discomfort after application. Serious but rare side effects include increased intraocular pressure, glaucoma, cataracts, and secondary infections due to prolonged steroid use. Allergic reactions such as rash, itching, or swelling around the eyes should be reported immediately. Patients should avoid using contact lenses during treatment and follow all instructions to prevent contamination and ensure proper healing.
