When taking orally, ketotifen fumarate can enhance the effects when combined with central nervous system depressants, antihistamines, or alcohol. Additionally, mixing it with oral diet pills may temporarily decrease platelet levels. After applying this medication, vision may be blurry, so it is advisable to refrain from driving or operating machinery until vision returns to normal. Drowsiness or sedative effects may rarely occur, so caution is needed during these activities. Patients undergoing treatment or allergy therapies, or those with a history of drug allergies, should consult a professional before using this drug. It is also safe to consult a professional if there is itching or pain in the eyes, or if the individual is pregnant or nursing. If eye redness, irritation, or itching persist, or if eyelid inflammation occurs, discontinue use immediately and consult a doctor or pharmacist. If blurred vision does not improve, if symptoms worsen, or if there is no improvement after one week, consult a professional.

It is recommended not to share it with others, and if using other eye drops, maintain a minimum interval of 5 minutes between applications. If this medication is accidentally ingested orally, the risk of overdose is low.
