Moxibac XG Eye Drop 0.5% + 0.4% is a sterile ophthalmic antibiotic formulation containing Moxifloxacin Hydrochloride combined with Xanthan Gum. It is designed for the effective treatment of bacterial eye infections while providing enhanced ocular retention time for improved therapeutic action.
Moxifloxacin acts as a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent, while Xanthan Gum increases the viscosity of the solution, allowing prolonged contact time with the eye surface and improved drug efficacy.
