In Treatment of Corneal inflammation

The outermost layer of the eye is called cornea and inflammation in this layer can be due to infections or injury.

Take Balagin 0.25mg/10mg/250mg Tablet as prescribed by the doctor. Avoid wearing contact lenses till you do not see improvement in your conditions.

In Treatment of Corneal ulcer

A corneal ulcer is a common eye condition. It is an open sore on the cornea and is usually caused due to a bacterial, viral or fungal infection.

How Balagin Tablet works

Balagin 0.25mg/10mg/250mg Tablet is a combination of three medicines: Atropine, Belladonna dry extract, and Magnesium Trisilicate. Atropine causes the muscles in your eye to become relaxed. This widens (dilates) your pupil so that it will not respond to light. Belladonna dry extract acts as a muscarinic antagonist, blocking receptors in the muscles of the eye that constrict pupil size. Magnesium Trisilicate is an antacid and alkalizer. Together, they help treat uveitis, corneal inflammation and corneal ulcer.
