| Question : | What is the best medicine for STYES (eye) in Thailand? What the drug store gave me is not working. How about medicines for Cold Sores and Fever Blisters? In the states I used Tanac but it's not available here. Thank you, Mrs. Diane Tharachai Female, 59 |
| Answer : | The medications for treating a simple sty are topical antibiotic eye drop (e.g. Tobramycin eye drop., etc) topical antibiotic eye ointment (e.g. Tobrax eye ointment) and oral antibiotic drug (dicloxacillin, erythromycin or augmentin etc). If the patient often had a sty on the eyelid, please go to see the ophthalmologist. Because it may not be a simple sty. The ophthalmologist will exam your eyes and give the exact diagnosis and management. |
