Precautions

This medication should not be used in patients who are allergic to protein-based drugs. Use of this medication may result in symptoms such as eyelid itching, eye irritation, conjunctivitis, redness, corneal disorders, and a feeling of foreign body presence. If such symptoms occur, stop use immediately and seek appropriate measures. In rare cases, eye discharge or eye pain may occur, so caution is advised. Hypersensitivity reactions such as blepharitis or eyelid dermatitis may occur while using this medication, so it should be discontinued if symptoms develop. When used in combination with steroids, dry eye treatments, antimicrobials, glaucoma medications, antihistamines, cataract medications, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, there may be an increased risk of adverse reactions, so caution is necessary. This medication should not be used simultaneously with other eye drops; it should be applied at least 30 minutes after using another eye drop. This medication is specifically for ophthalmic use only, and it is essential to avoid contact between the tip of the container and the eyelid or eyelashes. If the tip touches, the solution may become contaminated, so it should be handled with care. The preservative benzalkonium chloride in this medication can adhere to soft contact lenses and potentially damage them, so do not use while wearing contact lenses and wait at least 15 minutes after administration before wearing lenses. For single-use products, discarding the first 1-2 drops when first using is required, and any remaining solution should be discarded immediately after opening. It is advisable not to share this medication, and precautions should be taken to prevent contamination. Store out of reach of children, away from direct sunlight, and in a cool place. To maintain quality, do not transfer to another container.
