Quick Tips

  • Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute, immediately after putting the medication. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Try not to blink or rub your eye.
  • Eye infections can cause your eyes to become more sensitive to sunlight than usual. Wearing sunglasses may help to prevent this.
  • Wash your hands first before applying Zinbro-S. To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface.
  • Your doctor has prescribed Zinbro-S to cure your eye infection and improve your symptoms.
  • Take care to avoid spreading the infection from one eye to the other, and to other members of your family. Washing your hands regularly (particularly after touching your eyes) and not sharing towels or pillows will help to prevent the infection from spreading.
  • Along with using Zinbro-S, give warm compress to your eyes to get relief from itching and burning sensation.
  • Do not wear contact lenses until your infection clears up.
  • Use it twice a day (in the morning and the evening). If your symptoms are particularly severe, your doctor may suggest you use them up to four times a day.
