Mode of Action:

MOXITAK-PD constitutes 4^th generation Fluoro-Quinolones, Moxifloxacin as an anti-bacterial agent. Floro-Quinolones exert their antibacterial effect by preventing bacterial DNA from unwinding and duplicating.

Moxifloxacin hydrochloride is a synthetic 8-methoxyfluoroquinolone with a broad spectrum anti-bacterial effect on gram positive, gram negative and other anaerobic micro-organism.

PREDNISOLONE is a corticosteroid drug with predominant glucocorticoid and low mineralocorticoid activity, making it useful for the treatment of a wide range of inflammatory and used to reduce swelling, redness, itching, and allergic reactions affecting the eye. Corticosteroids inhibit the inflammatory response to a variety of inciting agents and, it is presumed, delay or slow healing.

Thus inhibits the edema, fibrin deposition, capillary dilation, leukocyte migration, capillary proliferation, fibroblast proliferation, deposition of collagen, and scar formation with inflammation

Post operative inflammations and ocular inflammation related to bacterial infections from the below mentioned strains:

• Corynebacterium species
  • Micrococcus luteus
  • Staphylococcus aureus
  • Staphylococcus epidermidis
  • Staphylococcus haemolyticus
  • Staphylococcus hominis
  • Haemophilus parainfluenzae
  • Staphylococcus warneri
  • Streptococcus pneumoniae
  • Streptococcus viridans group
  • Acinetobacter Iwoffii
  • Haemophilus influenzae
  • Chlamydia trachomatis

Warnings:

• Growth of Resistant Organisms with Prolonged Use
• Avoidance of Contact Lens Wear
• if irritations persist, discontinue the use and consult the eye doctor
• Delays Healing
• Should not be administered in eyes with herpes simplex and fungal infection
• Corticosteroids should not be indicated in corneal ulcers.
• Prolonged use may cause glaucoma or cataract.

Adverse Effect:

Stinging Sensation on instillation, blurry vision, allergic reaction, Irritation in the eye and watery eyes.
