What is the best medicine for a eye stye that is over the counter?

AnswerSorry, there's nothing, unless you can luck out and find a product called "Stye." It's an ophthalmic ointment that works. In addition, warm, moist compresses for 10 minutes at a time, throughout the day, can help a stye to drain. The best Rx [prescription] remedy is TOBRADEX eye drops, also prescribed for pink eye. These drops are quick-acting.I strongly disagree.The "Stye" product is a fraud. There is no Medical basis for how it would help a stye.Warm compresses are the correct treatment.Only if there is an open wound with active discharge are a topical antibiotics helpful. If the whole lid is swollen, this is a more serious infection that requires oral antibiotics.-G. Vicente, MD
