OZURDEX DEXAMETHASONE 0.7MG EYE INJECTION – 1

Ozurdex (dexamethasone 0.7 mg) is a corticosteroid medication administered via an eye injection. It is primarily used to treat various eye conditions, particularly those associated with inflammation and swelling. The main indications for Ozurdex include the treatment of macular edema following retinal vein occlusion, non-infectious uveitis affecting the posterior segment of the eye, and diabetic macular edema.

By reducing inflammation, Ozurdex helps improve vision and alleviate symptoms associated with these conditions. The drug works by suppressing the immune response and decreasing the production of inflammatory substances in the eye.

Ozurdex is typically administered by an eye care professional and is designed for patients who may not respond adequately to other treatments. Its sustained-release formulation allows for prolonged therapeutic effects, making it a valuable option in managing chronic eye diseases.
