Cortiflu Eye Drop 0.05% contains Difluprednate, a potent topical corticosteroid used in the treatment of ocular inflammation and pain. It is prescribed for inflammatory conditions of the eye where strong anti-inflammatory action is required.
Difluprednate works by suppressing the release of inflammatory mediators in ocular tissues, thereby reducing redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort. It is commonly used in post-operative eye inflammation and other steroid-responsive eye conditions.
Cortiflu Eye Drop provides targeted relief of inflammation and helps improve patient comfort and healing under strict ophthalmic supervision.
