[Hydrogel, a new galenic form in ophthalmology].
Good tolerance, long intervals of application and an excellent adhesion are the properties of viscous eye drops (Hydrogels). The use of fusidic acid as a hydrogel in the treatment of bacterial eye infections guarantees a long-lasting antibiotic concentration in tear fluid. When given twice daily, there will be sufficient concentration of the antibiotic in all important tissues of the eye and at the same time it increases the patient compliance.
