A Single- Centre, Randomised Study Of The Clinical And Microbiological Efficacy Of Decreasing The Dosage Of Levofloxacin 0,5% Eye Drops As Compared To Standard Eye Drop Dosage In Patients With Bacterial Conjunctivitis
Abstract
The aim of the study is to evaluate the clinical and microbiological efficacies of three times daily administration of levofloxacin 0,5% eye drops as compared to the more frequent dosing (up to 8 times a day during the first 2 days and up to 4 times a day during the next 3 days) in patients with bacterial conjunctivitis.
Conditions: Bacterial Conjunctivitis.
Primary outcome: The primary efficacy endpoint was the clinical cure..
Enrollment: 119 participants.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a randomized trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 2 of 5 (High · randomized trial). Randomized trials of a reasonable size are the strongest single-study design. Reported size: 119 participants or records.
