Mild to moderate infections:
Ointment: Apply half-inch to affected areas 2 to 3 times daily every 8 to 12 hrs

Solution: 1 to 2 drops in affected eyes every 12hrs, for infection associated with pseudomonas aeruginosa every 5 to 30 minutes (depends on the symptoms)
No dosage adjustment was described for renal/hepatic impairment
Indicated for Bacterial infection/Ocular inflammation:
Ophthalmic ointment: Apply a tiny quantity (approximately 0.5-inch ribbon) to the conjunctival sac thrice or four times a day
Ophthalmic suspension: Administer 1 to 2 drops to each affected eye thrice or four times a day
For the first 24-48 hours, the frequency may be increased to every 2 hours, then reduce to fewer frequent intervals
