Oriheal Opthovet GP (5ml) is a prescription-only, high-potency veterinary dual-action ophthalmic suspension engineered to treat severe bacterial eye infections that present with intense inflammation, pain, and tissue swelling in dogs and cats. The advanced formulation combines a next-generation antibiotic with a powerful corticosteroid: Gatifloxacin (0.3% w/v) and Prednisolone Acetate IP (1.0% w/v).
Gatifloxacin is a fourth-generation broad-spectrum fluoroquinolone antibiotic that rapidly kills bacteria by inhibiting the enzymes required for bacterial DNA replication. Prednisolone Acetate is a highly potent corticosteroid that works at the cellular level to block the inflammatory cascade, quickly relieving severe eye swelling, intense redness, heat, and painful itching. In companion animal medicine, Opthovet GP is clinically indicated for acute, non-ulcerative bacterial conjunctivitis, anterior uveitis, and deep ocular inflammation. It is also routinely prescribed by veterinarians as pre- and post-operative prophylaxis to manage inflammation and prevent infection following delicate intraocular procedures like cataract surgeries.
Critical Medical Warning: Corticosteroid-containing eye drops like Opthovet GP must never be used if a corneal ulcer, scratch, or surface abrasion is present. Steroids halt the cornea's natural healing mechanisms and can cause rapid corneal melting, deep perforation, or permanent blindness. A veterinarian must always perform a fluorescein stain test to confirm the cornea is completely intact before this medication is administered.
