\nLomefloxacin, a difluorioniated quinolone derivative, is a bacterial gyrase inhibitor, effective against gram positive and gram negative bacteria. Lomefloxacin interferes with bacterial DNA related processes like initiation, elongation and termination phases of replication, transcription, DNA repair, recombination, transposition, supercoling and relaxation of DNA, resulting in a rapid killing of sensitive bacteria. Cross-resistance has only been reported with other quinolones, but not with any other group of antibiotics. No clinical studies are available about the efficacy in case infections with chlamydia.

\nWarning & Precautions:
\nLong term treatment with antibiotic may enhance development of secondary fungal infections or may support growth of non-susceptible bacteria. Some isolated cases of phototoxicity have been reported after systemic but not after topical ophthalmic use of Lomefloxacin. Nevertheless, during treatment with Lomefloxacin intensive exposure to sunlight or UV-radiation should be avoided.
\n \n \n
\nSide effects:
\nSlight and transient burning immediately after instillation of the eye drops has been reported in 4.7% of users. Although phototoxicity has not been reported after ophthalmic use. Since the following allergic reactions have been reported after systemic use of Lomefloxacin, they cannot be excluded after topical ophthalmic use: allergic reactions, asthma, dyspnoea, urticaria, erythema, pruritus and hypersensitization.

\nDrug interaction:
\nIn order to avoid reduction of efficacy, no ophthalmic preparation containing heavy metals, such as zinc, should be used during 15 minutes preceding and following application of Lomeflox. Bacteriostatic ophthalmic antibiotics should not be used concomitantly with Lomefloxacin eye drops. Other interactions have not been described to date.
