Maxitrol is a prescription eye drop commonly used to treat eye inflammation and infection. It contains three active ingredients: neomycin, prednisone, and moxifloxacin, which have antibiotic and anti-inflammatory effects. Neomycin inhibits bacterial growth, prednisone has anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic properties, and moxifloxacin is bactericidal against a variety of bacteria. This eye drop is commonly used to treat inflammation caused by conjunctivitis, keratitis, and other eye infections. When using, follow your doctor's advice, instill eye drops correctly as directed, and avoid touching the mouth of the bottle. During use, you may experience temporary irritation or blurred vision, which are generally normal reactions. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention immediately. Do not change the dosage or frequency of medication on your own to avoid adverse reactions.
Instructions for use: Apply MAXITROL eye ointment to the eyes, 3 to 4 times a day, one grain of rice at a time. Please clean hands and eyes thoroughly before use and avoid contact with eyeballs. After use, gently close your eyes for about 1 to 2 minutes to help the drug be absorbed. If other eye medicines need to be used at the same time, they should be separated by at least 5 to 10 minutes. Avoid contact with soft contact lenses during use.
Dosage Guidelines: Adults and children can use MAXITROL eye ointment. The starting dose is one grain of rice 3 to 4 times daily. Dosage may be adjusted based on physician recommendations. For younger children, the physician may adjust the dose to match their age and condition. Read the instructions carefully before use and follow your doctor's advice when using the medicine. If you have any discomfort or questions, you should consult a physician or pharmacist immediately.

A small number of patients may experience skin sensitivity, allergic reactions, or eye redness and swelling. If serious side effects occur, such as severe eye pain, sudden loss of vision, or abnormal eye discharge, you should stop using the drug immediately and seek medical assistance.
