A member asked:
There's something is in my eye or it's scratched; can i use the tobradex (tobramycin and dexamethasone) i got last year?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: First you need to make sure any medication you use is not expired. Second tobradex (tobramycin and dexamethasone) contains both an antibiotic and steroid. The problem is more the steroid which can possibly make an infection worse. Please see your eye doctor for the best prescription.
