Usage

Sofracort Eye/Ear Drops (Dexamethasone/Framycetin Sulfate/Gramicidin) is a combined prescription medication used to treat various eye infections such as infective conjunctivitis, rosacea keratitis, scleritis, episcleritis, and other inflammatory conditions of the anterior segment of the eye. It is also effective against ear infections such as Otitis externa (acute and chronic) and other inflammatory and seborrheic conditions of the external ear. The active substances in Sofracort drops are Dexamethasone, Framycetin Sulfate, and Gramicidin. Framycetin and Gramicidin are antibiotics. It stops bacterial growth in the eye by preventing bacteria from synthesizing essential proteins required to carry out vital functions. Dexamethasone is a steroid that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the eye red, swollen and itchy.

Side Effects and Precautions

The common side effects of Sofracort Eye/Ear Drops are decreased vision, dizziness, eye pain, gradual blurring or loss of vision, hearing loss, itching, rash, ringing in the ears, and instability or loss of balance.

Stop using Sofracort Eye/Ear Drops and contact your doctor right away if you have any of the serious side effects such as:
• Burning, stinging, redness, or watering of the eyes;
• Stinging of the eye or ear;
• Symptoms of an allergic reaction to the active substances in the medication (e.g., difficulty breathing, hives, itchy skin rash, or swelling of the mouth or throat)

It is essential to wash your hands thoroughly. Follow your doctor or pharmacist's instructions on how to use the eye drops. Do not allow the eye dropper to touch any surface.

Do not touch your ear with the dropper. Alternatively, a saturated gauze wick may be inserted by your doctor into your external ear canal.

Suppose you are treating eye infections. The usual dose for acute conditions is 1 or 2 drops every 1 or 2 hours. However, if your doctor has recommended a dose different from the one given here, do not change the way you use the medication without consulting your doctor. You should continue to use this medication until you complete your dosage, even if you feel better.
