How Ciprofloxacin + Dexamethasone + Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose works
Ciprofloxacin + Dexamethasone + Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose is a combination of three medicines : Ciprofloxacin, Dexamethasone, and Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, that treats bacterial eye/ear infections. Ciprofloxacin is an antibiotic. It works by stopping the action of a bacterial enzyme called DNA-gyrase. This prevents the bacterial cells from dividing and repairing, thereby killing them. Dexamethasone is a steroid which works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause inflammation (redness and swelling) and allergies. Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose is a lubricant. It works similar to natural tears and provides temporary relief from burning and discomfort due to dryness of the eye.
