Tobex Tobramycin Eye Ointment 0.3% is a prescription medication used to treat bacterial eye infections. It contains the active ingredient tobramycin, which belongs to a class of antibiotics called aminoglycosides. This ointment works by stopping the growth of bacteria in the eye, thereby treating the infection. Tobex Tobramycin Eye Ointment 0.3% is typically prescribed for conditions such as conjunctivitis, keratitis, and blepharitis. It is applied directly to the affected eye(s) and is often used for several days until the infection clears up.

Tobrex eye ointment is used in the eye to treat bacterial infections of the eye. It is used to treat bacterial infections of the external part of the eye. Tobrex contains the active ingredient Tobramycin which is an “aminoglycoside” antibiotic. Before prescribing Tobrex your doctor will have examined your eye(s) and decided that Tobrex is the right medicine for you.
TOBRADEX (tobramycin and dexamethasone ophthalmic suspension) is a sterile, multiple dose antibiotic and steroid combination for topical ophthalmic use. Most bacterial infections will show some improvement using TobraDex for 2 to 3 days. If the infection shows no improvement within 2 to 3 days, consider culturing or changing to another medication.

FAQs for Antibiotic Ointments
  • What Is the Best Antibiotic Ointment?

    NEOSPORIN® (triple antibiotic ointment) is the best-known formula, combining neomycin, polymyxin B, and bacitracin for broad-spectrum infection prevention. Polysporin® (bacitracin + polymyxin B) is another leading antibiotic ointment, especially for people allergic to neomycin. Mupirocin (Bactroban®) is a prescription-only ointment, highly effective for staph and MRSA skin infections.

  • Can I Put Antibiotic Ointment in My Nose?

    Yes, but only as directed by your doctor! Mupirocin ointment is often prescribed intranasally to eliminate nasal MRSA colonization. Avoid putting over-the-counter ointments deep into your nose unless advised medically.

  • Is NEOSPORIN Ointment Safe in Pregnancy?

    Neosporin is generally considered safe in pregnancy when used topically and sparingly. Always consult your OB/GYN or healthcare provider before use, especially on large wounds or for extended periods.

  • What Is the Best Antibiotic Ointment for a Stye?

    Prescription bacitracin or erythromycin ointment is considered most effective. Never use ointments containing neomycin or bacitracin inside the eye without medical advice.

  • Do Antibiotic Ointments Actually Work?

    Yes, topical antibiotic ointments reduce infection risk, minimize bacterial growth, and support faster, cleaner wound healing on minor cuts, scrapes, and abrasions.

  • What Ointment Is Good for Bacterial Infection in the Nose?

    Mupirocin (Bactroban) ointment is the gold standard for nasal bacterial infections and MRSA decolonization.

  • Is Mupirocin Ointment Safe for Children?

    Yes, Mupirocin is approved and widely used for children. Always use as prescribed by your pediatrician.

  • What to Use Instead of Neosporin?

    Polysporin (for those allergic to neomycin) Bacitracin-only ointment Vaseline (petroleum jelly) for wound moisture and basic healing (no antibiotics, but promotes moist wound healing)

  • Where Not to Put Neosporin?

    Inside the eyes, large open wounds, or deep puncture wounds Never use inside the ear without medical guidance Not for use on animal bites or serious burns without a doctor’s advice

  • Is Polysporin an Antibiotic Ointment?

    Yes, Polysporin is a dual antibiotic ointment (bacitracin and polymyxin B), effective against a wide range of skin bacteria.

  • Can I Use Regular Antibiotic Ointment on My Eye?

    No, only use antibiotic ointments specifically labeled for ophthalmic (eye) use, such as erythromycin or bacitracin ophthalmic ointment. OTC or regular Neosporin/Polysporin is not safe for eyes.

  • How to Fight a Skin Infection Without Antibiotics?

    Keep the wound clean and covered Use warm compresses for boils Apply Vaseline or a hydrocolloid bandage for moist healing Monitor closely and seek medical care if worsening

  • Is There a 3 Day Antibiotic for Skin Infection?

    Not for topical use alone. Oral antibiotics for bacterial skin infection may be prescribed for 3–5 days, but ointments are typically used until the wound heals or as directed.

  • Is There an Alternative to Neosporin?

    Yes: Polysporin, Bacitracin, natural remedies like medical-grade honey, or basic Vaseline for non-infected wounds.

  • Why Do Doctors Not Use Neosporin Anymore?

    Growing rates of neomycin allergy/sensitization For many wounds, plain petroleum jelly/Vaseline is just as effective for healing, reducing antibiotic resistance risk.

  • What Is Polysporin?

    Polysporin is a dual-antibiotic ointment (bacitracin + polymyxin B) for first-aid use on minor wounds, with a lower allergy risk than triple antibiotics.

  • What Speeds Up Wound Healing?

    Daily cleaning, antibiotic ointment or Vaseline, keeping wounds moist, covering with a sterile bandage, and monitoring for infection all significantly speed up healing.

  • Which Ointment is Best for Wound Healing?

    NEOSPORIN, Polysporin, or plain petroleum jelly (Vaseline)—all support moist wound healing. Use antibiotic ointment if infection risk is high.

  • Which is Better, Polysporin or Neosporin?

    Polysporin: Fewer allergy risks, just as effective for minor wounds. Neosporin: Broader spectrum, but higher allergy risk (neomycin). Your doctor can advise the best choice for you!

  • What is a Triple Antibiotic Ointment?

    Triple antibiotic ointment (like Neosporin) contains: Neomycin, Polymyxin B, Bacitracin. It provides broad protection against common skin bacteria.

  • Is Vaseline as Good as Neosporin?

    For most minor wounds, Vaseline (petroleum jelly) is equally effective at healing and reducing scarring, but does not kill bacteria. Choose Neosporin if the wound is at risk for infection.
