Tobradex Description
What Tobradex is
Tobradex is an eye drop that combines tobramycin, an antibiotic, with dexamethasone, a corticosteroid. In Australia it is used to treat bacterial eye infections that come with inflammation. The medicine is prescribed by a GP or an ophthalmologist and then supplied by a pharmacy. Online Australian pharmacies list Tobradex with standard safety notes and dosing instructions. It is not intended for self‑diagnosis, and you should follow your doctor’s plan and the label carefully.
How to use Tobradex
Before applying, wash your hands. Tilt your head back and pull down the lower eyelid to form a small pocket. Put 1–2 drops into the eye every 4–6 hours, or as directed. Do not touch the dropper to your eye or any surface to keep it clean. After applying, keep your eye closed for a moment. If you use more than one drop, wait a few minutes before applying another. If you miss a dose, resume as soon as you remember and do not double the dose.
Australian context and cautions
In Australia Tobradex requires a prescription. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying the drops and do not reinsert for at least 15 minutes after use, unless your clinician says otherwise. Do not use this medicine for extended periods, as steroids can raise eye pressure or mask infections. Tell your doctor if you have glaucoma, cataracts, diabetes, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Discuss any other eye drops or medicines you use, as interactions can occur.
Possible side effects
Most people tolerate Tobradex well. Common effects include a mild burning or stinging sensation, blurred vision for a short time, and redness of the eye. Some people may notice dry eye or a temporary metallic taste. If you have worsening eye pain, severe redness, visual changes, or swelling, contact your clinician promptly, as these can indicate a more serious reaction or pressure change inside the eye.
Storage and practical notes
Store Tobradex at room temperature and protect it from light. Keep the bottle tightly closed and out of reach of children. Check the expiry date before use and discard the bottle after finishing the course or if the seal is broken. Do not share your eye drops with others, even if symptoms seem similar.
Buying Tobradex online in Australia
Online pharmacies in Australia usually require a valid prescription. A pharmacist may confirm your details and provide usage reminders. Delivery times can vary by state, but orders are typically fulfilled within a few days. Verify the pharmacy’s credentials and ensure the product is the right strength and form for ophthalmic use. If you are unsure about your symptoms, seek a face‑to‑face assessment from a clinician.
User review
Many customers report improvement within a couple of days when using Tobradex for conjunctivitis or a minor corneal infection. Some notice a short sting after applying the drops, which settles quickly. A few users highlight the importance of completing the full course and returning for review if symptoms persist. Overall, patients in Australia appreciate clear dosing guidance and reliable delivery from reputable online pharmacies.
