Precautions

This medication should not be used by individuals allergic to protein-based medications or any of its components. Using this medication may cause eyelid itching, eye irritation, conjunctivitis, redness, and occasionally, discharge or eye pain. If such symptoms occur, stop use immediately and seek appropriate care. Additionally, eyelid inflammation or skin inflammation may occur; if these symptoms appear, discontinue use and visit a hospital. Care should be taken when using this medication with other steroid medications, dry eye treatments, antibiotics, glaucoma treatments, antihistamines, cataract treatments, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, as adverse reactions may be more frequent.

Do not use this medication simultaneously with other eye drops; if necessary, administer another eye drop and then use this medication after approximately 30 minutes. This medicine is only for use in the eyes, and care should be taken to avoid contact between the tip of the container and the eyelid or eyelashes to prevent contamination from discharge or fungi. For single-use products, discard the first 1-2 drops upon first use, and once opened, use it only once and discard any remaining medication. Avoid sharing it with others.
