Terramycin eye ointment is used to treat bacterial infections of the eye such as conjunctivitis, blepharitis, and keratitis. It contains a broad-spectrum antibiotic that kills the bacteria causing the infection and helps reduce redness, irritation, and discharge resulting from the infection. A small amount of
Terramycin ointment is placed inside the lower eyelid according to the doctor's instructions and is used for several days until the condition improves. The specified duration of treatment must be adhered to and not stopped early to prevent the infection from returning. Hands must be washed well before and after use and avoid touching the tip of the tube to the eye or any external surface to maintain the cleanliness of the medicine. A doctor must be consulted if symptoms do not improve within a short period.
