    Golden Eye Antibiotic 1% w/w Chloramphenicol Eye Ointment

    Golden Eye Antibiotic 1% w/w Chloramphenicol Eye Ointment is used to treat acute bacterial conjunctivitis, sometimes known as "red eye" because the white part of the affected eye will be red and/or the eyelid will be red or swollen. There may also be a sticky discharge which can make the eye difficult to open in the morning, and the eye may feel 'gritty' or 'irritated'.

    The active ingredient in this ointment is chloramphenicol, which is an antibiotic used to treat infections caused by bacteria.

    Adults and children aged 2 years and over: A course of treatment lasts 5 days
    • If the eye ointment is being used alone, squeeze a thin line of ointment inside the lower eyelid of each affected eye 3 to 4 times a day. This means that you should use it about every 4-6 hours.
    • If you are using chloramphenicol eye drops during the day and the eye ointment at night - apply the ointment at night, before going to bed.
      • Wash your hands before and after using the ointment.
      • Sit or stand in front of a mirror.
      • Take off the tube cap.
      • Tilt head gently backwards.
      • Gently pull lower eyelid down.
      • Gently squeezing the tube, put about 1cm of ointment into the space between the lower eyelid and the eye.
      • Let go of the eyelid and blink a few times. This will help spread the ointment over the eye.
      • Try not to touch the eye, eyelashes, or anything else with the tip of the tube.
      • Repeat for the other eye, if affected.
      • Replace cap securely after use.

    • Active Ingredient: Chloramphenicol 1% w/w.
    • Other Ingredients: Liquid Paraffin, Wool Fat and Yellow Soft Paraffin.

    • This ointment contains wool fat. This may cause a skin reaction around the eyes such as "contact dermatitis".
    • The ointment may cause blurred vision due to smearing or stinging. This will only happen for a short period after it is put in your eye. If this happens do not drive or use machinery until you can see clearly.
