Work

This drop is an ophthalmic drug that belongs to the class of corticosteroids. It is used for its anti-inflammatory properties for treating eye problems arising due to injury or surgery. It can also be used after surgery to relieve symptoms like swelling, itching, and redness. Moxifloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that works by inhibiting the enzymes topoisomerase II (DNA gyrase) and topoisomerase IV. This interferes with the bacterial cell replication and repair leading to cell death.
