Opthalev TS Eye Drop 1.50% contains Levofloxacin, a broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibiotic specifically formulated for ophthalmic and otic use. This high-potency solution is designed to treat bacterial infections of the eye and ear, offering rapid antibacterial action with minimal systemic absorption. Opthalev TS provides effective management of bacterial conjunctivitis, keratitis, and external ear infections, ensuring quick relief from discomfort, redness, and irritation.

Levofloxacin works by inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, enzymes essential for DNA replication, transcription, and repair. This disruption prevents bacterial proliferation, leading to bacterial death. Its broad-spectrum activity covers a wide range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens, including Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and other ocular and ear pathogens.

The ophthalmic and otic formulation of Opthalev TS Eye Drop 1.50% allows direct application to the site of infection, achieving high local drug concentrations while minimizing systemic exposure. This targeted therapy ensures faster resolution of infection and reduces the risk of systemic side effects.

Mechanism of Action

Levofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone antibiotic that inhibits bacterial DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV, enzymes critical for DNA replication, transcription, and repair. By blocking these enzymes, Levofloxacin prevents bacterial cell division and growth, leading to cell death.

Its broad-spectrum activity covers both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria commonly associated with ocular and ear infections. This mechanism ensures effective treatment of a wide variety of bacterial pathogens, including drug-resistant strains.
