Phase 3 Study of Fusidic Acid 1% Eye Drops for Treating Bacterial Conjunctivitis in Adults and Children

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of fusidic acid 1% eye drops compared to a placebo for treating bacterial conjunctivitis in both adults and children. This Phase 3 clinical trial aims to show that fusidic acid 1% is superior to placebo in curing bacterial conjunctivitis and to further confirm its safety when applied topically to the eyes. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups one group will apply one drop of fusidic acid 1% in each eye twice daily for seven days, and the other group will use a placebo eye drop with the same schedule. The doses are ideally spaced about 12 hours apart, but the twice-daily application schedule is prioritized over exact timing. During the study, participants will be assessed for clinical cure and microbial eradication at Day 4 and Day 8 visits. Researchers will monitor safety and treatment effects through these evaluations and by tracking any adverse events. The total participation duration covers at least the seven days of treatment plus follow-up assessments, helping establish both effectiveness and safety profiles for the treatment.
