Description
Oxypol OC is a topical antibiotic ointment used to treat bacterial eye infections, including conjunctivitis and keratitis. It combines chloramphenicol, a broad-spectrum antibiotic, with hydrocortisone, a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation.
The ointment is typically applied to the affected eye(s) 3 to 4 times daily, as directed by a healthcare professional. Common side effects may include temporary blurred vision, eye irritation, or a mild burning sensation upon application. Serious side effects are rare but can include allergic reactions or increased intraocular pressure.
Oxypol OC is contraindicated in individuals with a known hypersensitivity to chloramphenicol, hydrocortisone, or any other component of the formulation. Caution is advised in patients with a history of glaucoma, cataracts, or other eye conditions. Prolonged use may lead to fungal or viral eye infections.
Before using Oxypol OC, consult a healthcare professional, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have underlying health conditions. Store the ointment in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, and keep it out of reach of children.
