Basic Information On Vigamox
Vigamox is an antibiotic used for the treatment of bacterial conjunctivitis. It belongs to a class of drugs called fluoroquinolones. It works by preventing the action of a bacterial enzyme called DNA gyrase, which results in malfunction of certain proteins thereby causing bacterial cell death. The Vigamox drug is meant only for treating ophthalmic bacterial infections.
Side Effects/Precautions For Vigamox
Vigamox also called as Moxifloxacin, causes side effects like stinging, itching and redness of the eye. Some people experience dryness. These side effects are not severe and are prominent only during the first week, when the body is adjusting to the drug. You may also experience momentary blurring. Talk to your doctor about any health condition you may have, that can worsen the side effects, like dry eyes, before you start on brand or generic Vigamox medication. Eye infections can happen if you contaminate the dropper. Do not touch the dropper as it is sterile.
You may be allergic to Moxiflaxacin. Allergic reactions produce symptoms like redness, itching that does not seem to alleviate. If you use contact lenses, you should avoid putting them on during infection, as contact lenses can worsen conjunctivitis.

Vigamox Dosage
For adults the recommended dosage of Vigamox is one drop in the affected eye, three times a day, for 7 days. After the medicine has been administered, slightly closing the eyelid can help reduce adverse systemic effects. If the dose is missed, it should not be compensated for later. The next dose should be administered on time. If more than one ophthalmic topical medication is being used, then each of these should be administered at least 5 minutes apart. Dosage should not exceed one drop. No dose adjustments are required for the renal or hepatic impaired. The drug should not be used for longer than prescribed, as the body can build resistance to it and reduce the effectiveness of future treatment.
