Precautions

This medication should not be used by individuals who have allergic reactions to benzalkonium chloride. When instilled in the eyes, it may temporarily cause stinging or irritation, and side effects such as eyelid inflammation or conjunctivitis may occur rarely. It is advisable to avoid wearing soft contact lenses while using this medication. Even if symptoms improve, medication should be continued if exposure to the allergen persists. Women who are pregnant or may become pregnant should make an informed decision after consulting a physician regarding the potential risks to the fetus. This medication is meant for ocular use only, and care should be taken to avoid direct contact of the container tip with the eye. To prevent contamination, do not share this medication with others and clean any excess medication that spills around the eyes. It is safe to discard any remaining medication after 1 month from opening. Keep the medication out of reach of children, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and it is recommended not to transfer it to another container to maintain quality. Caution is advised as hypersensitivity to the preservative benzalkonium chloride in this medication has been reported.
