Moxifloxacin ophthalmic solution is used to treat bacterial conjunctivitis (pink eye; infection of the membrane that covers the outside of the eyeballs and the inside of the eyelids). Moxifloxacin is in a class of antibiotics called fluoroquinolones. It works by killing the bacteria that cause infection.
Moxifloxacin is metabolized to an N-sulfate conjugate and an acyl glucuronide in humans. The N-sulfate and the unchanged moxifloxacin are detected in plasma, urine and feces. The acyl-glucuronide is detected in plasma and urine, but not in feces.
In humans, the pharmacokinetics of prednisolone is complex. After oral intake, it exhibits rapid absorption and becomes almost completely (80%-100%) available. Peak plasma concentrations reach 1 to 2 hours after oral administration.
Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them
