Oriheal Opthovet G Gentamicin Ophthalmic Eye Drops for Dogs & Cats

Oriheal Opthovet G is a veterinary prescription ophthalmic solution containing Gentamicin (aminoglycoside antibiotic), manufactured by Oriheal Lifesciences. Unlike combination corticosteroid-antibiotic ophthalmic preparations, Opthovet G is a steroid-free antibiotic eye drop — making it suitable for use in bacterial eye infections where corticosteroids are contraindicated, including cases with corneal ulceration. Opthovet G is indicated for bacterial conjunctivitis, keratitis, blepharitis, and other bacterial ocular surface infections in dogs and cats.

Composition (to be confirmed from product label)

• Gentamicin — concentration % (confirm from label) — aminoglycoside antibiotic
• Sterile ophthalmic vehicle base — q.s.

Mechanism of Action

• Gentamicin binds irreversibly to the 30S ribosomal subunit of susceptible bacteria — causes misreading of mRNA and inhibits bacterial protein synthesis; bactericidal activity against gram-negative organisms (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, E. coli, Klebsiella) and gram-positive organisms (Staphylococcus spp.) commonly causing ocular surface infections in dogs and cats

Therapeutic Class

• Veterinary aminoglycoside antibiotic prescription ophthalmic eye drops for dogs and cats — steroid-free bacterial eye infection treatment

Key Benefits

• Broad-spectrum aminoglycoside bactericidal coverage — effective against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus, and other common gram-negative and gram-positive ocular pathogens
• Steroid-free formulation — can be used safely in bacterial eye infections with concurrent corneal ulceration (where corticosteroid-containing drops are contraindicated)
• Targeted antibiotic-only therapy for uncomplicated bacterial ocular infections not requiring concurrent anti-inflammatory treatment
• Sterile ophthalmic formulation — suitable for direct instillation into the eye

Indications

• Bacterial conjunctivitis in dogs and cats
• Bacterial keratitis and corneal surface infections
• Blepharitis — bacterial eyelid margin infections
• Ocular surface bacterial infections including those associated with corneal ulceration (steroid-free use)
• Post-surgical ocular antibiotic prophylaxis as directed by veterinarian

Directions for Use

• Instil 1–2 drops into the affected eye(s) as directed by a licensed veterinarian
• Frequency and duration determined by the prescribing veterinarian based on species, diagnosis, and clinical response
• Gently clean ocular discharge from around the eye before instillation if present
• Do not touch the dropper tip to the eye, eyelid, or any surface — replace cap immediately after use to maintain sterility

Safety Information

• Prescription medicine — for veterinary use only; administer under licensed veterinary supervision
• Steroid-free — suitable for use in corneal ulcers where corticosteroids are contraindicated (confirm from label and with veterinarian)
• Prolonged use may result in overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms or fungal superinfection — discontinue and seek veterinary advice if condition worsens
• Gentamicin is potentially ototoxic if used in ears with ruptured tympanic membrane — ophthalmic use only
• Keep out of reach of children; store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight; discard after stated expiry
