I've been prescribed Maxitrol 0.1% Ophth Oint 3.5gm for a stubborn eye infection, and it seems to be helping, but I've noticed some irritation. I've read that this is a common side effect, but I'm still a bit concerned. Has anyone else had experience with this medication? I'd love to hear about your experiences, especially if you’ve had any side effects. Additionally, I've been wondering if there are any tips for using this ointment effectively. It's a bit tricky to apply! The combination of antibiotics and steroid sounds great, but I want to make sure I'm using it correctly and managing any potential irritation.

I had a bad experience with Maxitrol. It made my eye super irritated and I had to stop using it. Definitely talk to your doctor if you have any concerns.

I'm a bit worried about the potential side effects, especially the allergic reactions. Has anyone else had any issues with that? I just want to be prepared.

I've been using Maxitrol for a while now, and it's been great! Just make sure to keep the tube clean and avoid contaminating the ointment.

I've been using Maxitrol for about a week now, and it's been a lifesaver. I've had some eye irritation, but it's manageable. My doctor told me to use it sparingly to avoid any side effects.
