About OZURDEX
OZURDEX is a corticosteroid medication used to treat various eye conditions, including non-infectious intermediate uveitis and posterior uveitis, and non-infectious intermediate uveitis and panuveitis. It is administered via intravitreal injection to reduce inflammation and prevent vision loss.
Key Benefits & Uses

Active Ingredient & Action
OZURDEX contains the active ingredient DEXAMETHASONE, a synthetic corticosteroid that works by suppressing the immune system's response to inflammation in the eye. DEXAMETHASONE binds to glucocorticoid receptors, which then inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and other mediators of inflammation, thereby reducing inflammation and preventing tissue damage.
Important Notes
Before using OZURDEX, inform your doctor if you have any underlying medical conditions, including glaucoma, cataracts, or diabetes. OZURDEX may cause increased intraocular pressure, cataract formation, or eye infections. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully and attend regular follow-up appointments to monitor the effectiveness and safety of the treatment.
