I used tobastar by mistake for red eye for 2 days. I used 3-4 times for 2 days and 2 drops in each eye . This medicine was given to my kid for red eye and he is 3.5 years old , I also got the infection and I used the medicine . I was not aware if there is any issue in pregnancy with this , I am bit worried and want to know if there could be any issues.

Don't worry. Tobramycin eye drop is considered safe in pregnancy. Systmic absorption after eye drops is very less.
