Posted on Tue, 6 Oct 2015

Question: If I used vi sine about an hour ago.. I have ciprofoxcin othamlic solution from a previous infection. Can I now use this as well. It isn't expired

Brief Answer:
Yes, both can be used

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
These 2 can be taken together but I dont think this is necessary to take cipro solution unless there is conjuctivitis or suspicious bacterial infection. ALso it would be good not to apply it at the same time. At least 2 hours should pass before taking another dose of drops. Wish you good health. Regards
