Eyemox-D Eye Drops – Dual Therapy for Infection & Inflammation
Eyemox-D Eye Drops provide a powerful combination of Moxifloxacin 0.5%, a fourth-generation fluoroquinolone antibiotic, and Dexamethasone 0.1%, a potent corticosteroid. This combination is ideal when bacterial infection is accompanied by significant inflammation, redness, or swelling.
Manufactured by Vega Pharmaceuticals, Eyemox-D offers fast, comprehensive treatment in a single ophthalmic solution.
What Eyemox-D Contains
- Moxifloxacin Hydrochloride – 5 mg (0.5%)
A broad-spectrum bactericidal antibiotic effective against a wide range of ocular pathogens, including resistant strains.
It kills bacteria by inhibiting DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, stopping bacterial growth and replication.
- Dexamethasone – 1 mg (0.1%)
A strong corticosteroid that reduces:
- Inflammation
- Redness
- Swelling
- Irritation
- Immune-mediated discomfort
Indications – What Eyemox-D Treats
Eyemox-D Eye Drops are indicated for conditions where bacterial infection and inflammation coexist, such as:
- Acute bacterial conjunctivitis with inflammation
- Keratoconjunctivitis
- Post-operative inflammation with infection risk
- Blepharoconjunctivitis
- Corneal injury with secondary bacterial involvement
- Post-cataract or refractive surgery inflammation (doctor-directed)
How the Formula Works
Moxifloxacin (Antibiotic)
- Kills bacteria quickly

- Effective even against resistant strains
- Penetrates ocular tissues very well
Dexamethasone (Corticosteroid)
