About Aculac Eye Drop

KETOROLAC+OFLOXACIN belongs to the class of ocular medications called ‘Ophthalmic agents’ used to treat bacterial eye infections or eye discomfort, especially in patients who have undergone eye surgeries. It used to treat eye infections such as conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva) and inflammatory conditions of the other parts of the eye (cornea, iris, and connective tissue).

KETOROLAC+OFLOXACIN is a combination of two medicines: Ofloxacin and Ketorolac. Ofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that interferes with the formation of essential proteins required for bacterial growth. Ketorolac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. It works by reducing the production of chemical substances that cause pain and inflammation in the eye.
