Brief Summary:
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate, through clinical parameters, the effectiveness of your medicine topic Maxinom ® (dexamethasone, neomycin and polymyxin B - Union Chemicals), comparing it to the topical medication Maxitrol ® (dexamethasone, neomycin and polymyxin B - Alcon ) by the percentage of improvement (sustained response rate) at the end of treatment, among the products studied.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Bacterial Conjunctivitis Acute Drug: MAXINOM® Drug: Maxitrol® Phase 3

Detailed Description:
  1. Evaluation of isolated signs and symptoms during treatment, with a record of individual scores for each parameter and observation
  2. Statistical comparison of drug safety, by recording qualitative and quantitative parameters related to adverse effects occurring during treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Compared effectiveness between drugs using percentage of improvement (sustained response rate) at the end of treatment. [ Time Frame: 7 dyas of treatment. ]
    There will be a total of three returns after inclusion (0 day), and they are 1, 3 and 7 days after initiation of treatment. At the returns of 1 and 3 days there will be a tolerance of + 1 day and the return of 7 day, the tolerance will be +- 1 day. On each return will be collected data on the efficacy and safety.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Evaluation of signs and symptoms during treatment with a record of individual scores for each parameter established. [ Time Frame: 7 days of treatment. ]
    There will be a total of three returns after inclusion (0 day), and they are 1, 3 and 7 days after initiation of treatment. At the returns of 1 and 3 days there will be a tolerance of + 1 day and the return of 7 day, the tolerance will be +- 1 day. On each return will be collected data on the efficacy and safety.

  2. Statical comparison of drug safety by recording qualitative and quantitative parameter related to adverse effects occurring during treatment. [ Time Frame: 7 days of treatment. ]
