Pychlor Eye Ointment belongs to a combination of medicines called 'antibiotics' primarily used to treat bacterial infections of the eye (optic) and ear (otic). Bacterial infection is a condition in which harmful bacteria grow in the body and cause infection. It can infect any part of the body and multiply very quickly. Pychlor Eye Ointment does not work against infections caused by viruses and fungus.

Pychlor Eye Ointment is a combination of two antibiotics, namely: Polymyxin B and Chloramphenicol. Polymyxin B is bactericidal, which kills the bacteria by preventing the formation of bacterial cell walls essential for their survival. Chloramphenicol is bacteriostatic, which prevents bacterial growth by inhibiting the production of essential proteins necessary for the growth, and multiplication of the bacteria. Pychlor Eye Ointment prevents the spread of eye and ear infections caused by a wide range of gram-negative bacteria causing eye/ear infections.

Pychlor Eye Ointment is a combination of two antibiotics: Polymyxin B and Chloramphenicol. It is used to treat bacterial infections of the eye like conjunctivitis and ear infections like otitis media. Polymyxin B is bactericidal (kills bacteria) in nature, inhibiting bacterial cell wall formation required for their survival. Thus, it prevents the entry of unwanted substances into the cells and stops the leakage of cell contents. Chloramphenicol is bacteriostatic (prevents bacteria growth) in nature with excellent eye penetration and exhibits broad-spectrum coverage against various bacteria, which causes eye/ear infections by preventing the protein synthesis process required for the survival of the bacteria causing eye/ear infection.
