Precautions

This medication should not be used in patients with hypersensitivity to this drug. If skin inflammation or other hypersensitivity reactions occur around the eyes while using this medication, stop usage immediately and seek appropriate treatment. There may be sensations of irritation, stinging, itching, redness, or swelling; caution is required if these symptoms occur. In severe cases, sufficient effect may not be expected with this drug alone, so consider combining it with other treatments or medications, and avoid prolonged use for no special reasons. It is advisable not to use this medication for women who are pregnant, especially during the first three months, or for women who may become pregnant, due to reports of skeletal abnormalities in animal studies. Safety has not been confirmed for premature infants, newborns, and infants, so it is preferable not to use this medication in these populations. This medication is for direct instillation into the eyes only, and care should be taken to ensure that the tip of the container does not directly touch the eye during instillation. Finally, this medication should not be stored in the refrigerator as crystallization may occur; store it at room temperature instead.
