Indications & Uses
Gatifloxacin + Dexamethasone is used for inflammatory conditions of the eye that respond to steroids and also involve bacteria. These include blepharitis, scleritis, episcleritis, iritis, cyclitis, iridocyclitis, choroiditis, optic neuritis and chronic anterior uveitis. It also helps in disciform and interstitial keratitis, allergic corneal marginal ulcers, and corneal injury from chemical, radiation or thermal burns.
Pharmacology
Gatifoxacin works against bacteria by blocking two enzymes, DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. DNA gyrase is essential for bacterial DNA to be copied, read and repaired. Topoisomerase IV is known to play a key role in separating the chromosomal DNA when a bacterial cell divides. Because Gatifoxacin stops this process, it kills the bacteria (it is bactericidal).
Dexamethasone acts by blocking phospholipase A2, which is the first step in making prostaglandins. It also stops neutrophils from moving into the site of inflammation. Its anti-inflammatory activity is 30 times greater than that of hydrocortisone, and its overall therapeutic effectiveness is 8-10 times greater. Like other glucocorticoids, Dexamethasone is anti-allergic, anti-exudative and anti-proliferative.
