How Zylopred Eye Drop works

Zylopred Opthalmic Suspension is a combination of two medicines: Gatifloxacin and Loteprednol etabonate. Gatifloxacin is an antibiotic. It kills bacteria in the eye by preventing them from reproducing and repairing themselves. This treats your infection. Loteprednol etabonate is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the eye red swollen and itchy.
