This is an ointment that is given directly in the eye(s) when your pet has an eye or eyelid infection with inflammation.
Your veterinarian will determine the dose and frequency of dosing that is right for your pet. Apply ointment to the affected eye(s) by placing one hand under and around your pet's chin in order to lift his/her head upward so he/she is looking towards the ceiling. Apply all ointment to the lower lid of the eye without touching the tip of the tube directly to the eye. Gently massage all ointment by helping your pet to blink a couple of times after medication has been applied. Your veterinarian can show you how to apply this medication correctly if needed.
There are two antibiotics (Neomycin and polymixin B) that will work to halt bacterial growth and kill the bacteria causing your pets infection. The steroid (dexamethasone) will help to reduce association inflammation by blocking the production of substances that trigger an inflammatory response.

We have only been using Chewy for a short time, but so far are very pleased with the order process, finding products we want/need and for a good price. Shipping is always very speedy as well. Thank you!!
We adopted an old lovable kitty and he has bad eyes that bother him terribly. This product clears it right up and keeps it at bay. Also, has help our dog when he gets an eye infection. Works quickly.
I needed prescription eye gel for my geriatric cocker spaniel. I ordered online and Chewy handled the rest from getting the prescription from my veterinarian to shipping the medication to me. Within days it was in my mailbox.
My little dog has an auto-immune eye disease and has been on this for many years. Three times a week and we are able to control the swelling on her eyelids. She will be on this for the rest of her life, but at least I can count on Chewy for an excellent price and service, plus incredibly fast shipping.
So easy to do online through Chewey.com! I get most supplies through Chewy.
Its just works a bit pricey though prompt delivery thank you. Does not burn as research indicated.
Great product. Easy to use! A small price to pay to ensure your dogs vision!
It seems to work a little better than the previous eye drop I used on him for a year. But this new sauve doesn’t work as well as I hoped either. I’m pretty frustrated. My poor dog. He had this eye infection when I adopted him a year ago, still has it.
Did nothing for bump by Watsons eye. After vet finally released prescription, Chewy had it arrive quickly.
I gave them the info for his prescription, THEY called my Vet at home, got it approved and set it out to me. A#1 fantastic!!
