About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Estocin Eye Ointment contains Azithromycin 1% w/w, a macrolide antibiotic effective against a broad spectrum of bacterial infections affecting the eye. It is primarily indicated for the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis caused by susceptible strains of microorganisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, and Moraxella catarrhalis. Azithromycin works by inhibiting bacterial protein synthesis, thereby preventing bacterial growth and multiplication. Estocin Eye Ointment is applied topically to the affected eye(s), providing targeted antibacterial action with minimal systemic absorption. The ointment formulation ensures prolonged contact time with the ocular surface, enhancing therapeutic efficacy and patient compliance. It is generally well-tolerated, with mild and transient side effects such as eye irritation, burning sensation, or blurred vision occasionally reported. Patients are advised to avoid contact lenses during treatment and to complete the full course as prescribed to prevent resistance development. Estocin Eye Ointment should be stored at room temperature, away from light and moisture. It is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to azithromycin or any component of the formulation. Consultation with a healthcare professional is recommended before use, especially in pregnant or breastfeeding women. This medication offers an effective solution for bacterial eye infections, promoting rapid symptom relief and recovery.
