How to use Iotrim Eye Ointment

This medicine is for external use only. Take it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Hold the tube close to the eye without touching it. Gently squeeze the tube and place the medicine inside the lower eyelid.

How Iotrim Eye Ointment works

Iotrim Eye Ointment is a combination of two antibiotics (Gramicidin and Neomycin) and a steroid (Triamcinolone). The antibiotics work by killing the bacteria that cause infections. The steroid blocks the action of chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy.

Quick tips

  • Your doctor has prescribed Iotrim Eye Ointment to cure your eye infection and improve your symptoms.
  • Use it twice a day (in the morning and the evening) or as prescribed by the doctor.
  • Do not wear contact lenses until your infection clears up.
  • Eye infections can cause your eyes to become more sensitive to sunlight than usual. Wearing sunglasses may help to prevent this.
  • Along with using Iotrim Eye Ointment, give a warm compress to your eyes to get relief from itching and burning sensation.
  • Take care to avoid spreading the infection from one eye to the other, and to other members of your family. Washing your hands regularly (particularly after touching your eyes) and not sharing towels or pillows will help to prevent the infection from spreading.
