Polytrim is used to treat bacterial infections of the eye, such as blepharitis and conjunctivitis. Its targeted use in addressing bacterial eye infections highlights its role in providing effective treatment for these specific conditions.

Polytrim contains two antibiotics, Polymyxin B and Trimethoprim. Polymyxin B works by killing the bacteria, while Trimethoprim works by stopping the growth of the bacteria. This combination of antibiotics provides a comprehensive approach to addressing bacterial eye infections.
