FAQs about Vigamox
What should I do if I miss a dose?
If you miss a dose of Vigamox, you should apply it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not apply two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose.
Can I take Vigamox while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The use of Vigamox during pregnancy should be discussed with your healthcare provider, as the effects on an unborn baby are not fully known. It is also important to consult your prescriber if you are breastfeeding, as moxifloxacin can pass into breast milk.
How should I store Vigamox?
Vigamox should be stored at room temperature, away from light and moisture. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use and out of reach of children.
