Description
Ciprofloxacin 0.3% Eye/Ear Drops contain ciprofloxacin, a fluoroquinolone antibiotic used for certain susceptible bacterial infections involving the eye or ear, depending on the specific product formulation and labeling.
It works by interfering with bacterial DNA replication, helping stop the growth of susceptible bacteria.
