How Tobracid F Products work

Tobramycin + Fluorometholone is a combination of two medicines: Tobramycin + Fluorometholone1 and Tobramycin + Fluorometholone2. Tobramycin + Fluorometholone1 is an antibiotic. It stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Tobramycin + Fluorometholone2 is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the affected area red, swollen and itchy.
