About Moxifloxacin Hydrochloride + Dexamethasone Eye Drops
ASVIMOX-D is a potent formulation that is formulated using three well-balanced active ingredients:
- Moxifloxacin HCl (0.5% w/v): It is a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent that blocks bacterial DNA replication. It has an advanced molecular structure, which enables it to penetrate through the ocular tissues better than previous antibiotic generations.
- Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate (0.1% w/v): This is a potent synthetic corticosteroid that inhibits the inflammatory cascade by reducing redness, swelling, and pain by inhibiting the release of arachidonic acid.
- Benzalkonium Chloride (0.02% v/v): It is a pharmaceutical-grade preservative, which is added to ensure the solution remains sterile across the entire shelf life.
