GATISOL

GATISOL EYE DROP is primarily used for treating bacterial infections of the eye, such as conjunctivitis or keratitis. It helps support patients by targeting the source of infection and promoting healing. The eye drop formulation allows for direct application to the affected area, which can enhance its effectiveness in delivering relief and improving overall eye health.

The active ingredient in GATISOL EYE DROP is gatifloxacin, a type of antibiotic that belongs to a class known as fluoroquinolones. At a high level, gatifloxacin works by interfering with the bacteria’s ability to multiply and spread. It does this by inhibiting specific enzymes necessary for bacterial DNA replication, ultimately leading to the bacteria’s destruction. This helps reduce the symptoms associated with eye infections, allowing for a quicker recovery.

For best results, it’s advised to store GATISOL EYE DROP in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and to keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use. Consistency in using the drops as directed can contribute to better outcomes. Patients should be cautious and avoid touching the dropper tip to any surfaces, including the eye, to prevent contamination.

Some common mild side effects may include temporary stinging or burning upon application, dry eyes, or a slight increase in tearing. These effects are often short-lived and should resolve quickly.
