Description: Gatiquin-P Eye Drop is a combination of two medicines used in the treatment of bacterial eye infections. It stops the growth of microorganisms and kills the existing ones that cause the infection. It also blocks the release of certain chemical messengers that cause the eye red, swollen, and itchy. Gatiquin-P Eye Drop is to be used only in the affected eye. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by the doctor. Read the label carefully for instruction before you use the medicine.

How to Use: Gatiquin-P Eye Drop is a combination of two medicines. Gatifloxacin is an antibiotic that works by stopping the action of a bacterial enzyme called DNA-gyrase. This prevents the bacterial cells from dividing and repairing, thereby killing them. Prednisolone is a steroid which works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation (redness and swelling) and allergies. This how it works to treat bacterial eye infections.
