How Does Chlorocol H Eye Ointment Work?

• Chloramphenicol (Antibiotic) — This broad-spectrum bacteriostatic antibiotic works by binding to the 50S ribosomal subunit of bacterial cells, thereby blocking the synthesis of essential proteins that bacteria need to survive and replicate. Without these proteins, bacteria cannot multiply, and the infection gradually clears. It is effective against a wide spectrum of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria responsible for common eye infections.
• Hydrocortisone (Corticosteroid) — This steroid component acts on glucocorticoid receptors to suppress the release of prostaglandins, cytokines, and other inflammatory mediators. The result is a rapid reduction in redness, swelling, itching, and discomfort. This makes the healing experience far more comfortable and speeds up visible recovery from the infection.

Chlorocol H Eye Ointment Dosage & How to Apply

Recommended Dosage

Step-by-Step Application Guide

• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before applying the ointment.
• Tilt your head back or lie down and look upward.
• Gently pull down your lower eyelid using one finger to create a small pocket (conjunctival sac).
• Squeeze a small ribbon of ointment (approximately 1 cm) into this pocket — do not let the tube tip touch your eye or eyelid.
• Close your eye gently and roll your eyeball around to help spread the ointment evenly.
• Keep your eye closed for 1–2 minutes to allow absorption.
• Wipe away any excess ointment with a clean tissue.
• Replace the tube cap tightly after every use.
• Maintain a gap of at least 10 minutes before using any other eye drops or medications in the same eye.
• Remove contact lenses before application and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them.
