Cortisporin Ophthalmic Suspension is a medication used to treat ocular inflammation associated with bacterial infection. It helps to relieve the symptoms of these infections, such as redness, swelling, and discharge, while also treating the underlying infection.
Cortisporin Ophthalmic contains three active ingredients, hydrocortisone, neomycin, and polymyxin B, which work together to treat infections of the eye and surrounding structures.
Hydrocortisone is a steroid that reduces inflammation and itching, while neomycin and polymyxin B are antibiotics that work by killing or stopping the growth of bacteria. This combination is effective against a wide range of bacterial infections of the eye, including conjunctivitis, keratitis, and blepharitis.
Use one or two drops of Cortisporin Ophthalmic Suspension in the affected area eye every 3 or 4 hours, or as directed by a healthcare professional.
Before using Cortisporin Ophthalmic Suspension, patients should wash their hands and tilt their head back while looking up. They should then pull down the lower eyelid to create a pouch and place one or two drops into the pouch. Patients should close their eyes for a few seconds to allow the medication to spread over the eye’s surface. They should be careful not to touch the dropper tip to any surface, as this may contaminate the medication. If using other eye drops, patients should wait at least 5 minutes between using the Suspension and the other drops.
Cortisporin Ophthalmic Suspension should be used for the full prescribed course of treatment, which is usually 7 to 10 days. Patients should not wear contact lenses while using Cortisporin Ophthalmic Suspension, and it should not be used to treat contact lens-related eye infections.
