Bfenac Eye Drop 0.09% contains Bromfenac Sodium, a potent nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) formulated for ophthalmic use. It is primarily indicated to reduce inflammation and pain associated with ocular surgery, such as cataract extraction, and to manage postoperative ocular discomfort.
Bfenac works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, which are responsible for the production of prostaglandins that cause inflammation, swelling, and pain in the eye. Its highly selective action provides rapid relief from ocular inflammation while minimizing systemic exposure.
