Description

ZYMAXID is formulated with Gatifloxacin, a broad-spectrum antibiotic that combats a wide range of bacteria. By inhibiting bacterial DNA gyrase, ZYMAXID effectively prevents bacterial growth and replication. This makes it an ideal choice for treating bacterial conjunctivitis and other eye infections, offering quick relief from symptoms and aiding in faster healing.
