The problems of resistance to modern antibiotics and fluoroquinolones naturally stimulate interest in the development of eye dosage forms based on antiseptics. Today, their list has successfully supplemented the domestic drug Okomistin eye, ear, nasal drops (0.01 % — benzyldimethyl-myristoylamino-propylammonium), the manufacturer of Infamed-K. Numerous clinical studies performed, however, on adult patients, indicate a high therapeutic efficacy of the drug Okomistin®. However, with respect to children, the efficacy of Okomistin® remains unclear, although the drug has been approved for use by children from birth today.Objective. To evaluate the effectiveness of the Okomistin® in the treatment of children with bilateral bacterial conjunctivitis.Patients and Methods. Material research consisted of 30 children aged 3–16 years with bilateral acute bacterial conjunctivitis. 15 of them (26 eyes) received six-time instillations of the Okomistin® and 15 (24) — 0.05 % — Рicloxidin. All were subjected to traditional clinical examination and examination of the microflora of the conjunctival cavity with the determination of its sensitivity to antibiotics using the disk method.Results. In the spectrum of microflora found in the examined children, Staphylococcus Аureus dominated (14 eyes (53.8 %) — in the group of patients receiving Okomistin® and 13 (54.2 %) — Picloxidin), and Еpidermal Staphylococcus — 12 (46, 2 %) and 12 (50.0 %), respectively. Against the background of six-fold instillations of the compared drugs, a pronounced positive dynamics was established in relation to the relief of objective and subjective clinical symptoms of bacterial conjunctivitis already in the first week of treatment. At the same time, on the 7th day of therapy, in both groups of children, a significant decrease in the frequency of detection of microflora in the conjunctival cavity was noted, and on the 10th day, all the examined people underwent the contents of the conjunctival cavity to be sterile.Conclusion. The clinical efficacy of the Okomistin®, in combination with the absence of side effects of the drug and the affordable cost, allows recommending it for widespread practical use in pediatric and adult ophthalmology in the treatment of eye diseases of a bacterial nature. It seems promising to study the effectiveness of the drug in order to reorganize the conjunctival cavity in infants with dacryocystitis.
