During the use of this medication, it is advisable not to use other eye drops concurrently. If taken orally, it may enhance the effects when combined with central nervous system depressants, antihistamines, or alcohol. Additionally, caution should be exercised when taking it with oral diet drugs, as it may lower platelet counts. It may cause blurred vision after instillation; therefore, driving or operating machinery should be avoided until vision returns to normal. Moreover, drowsiness or sedation may occur rarely, necessitating caution during driving or machine operation. Consult a healthcare professional before using this medication if you are receiving treatment from a doctor, undergoing allergy treatment, or have a history of drug allergies. It is also important to consult a professional if there is eye itching or pain, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. If eye redness, irritation, or itching persists, or if there is inflammation of the eyelids, discontinue use immediately and consult a professional. If symptoms do not improve or worsen, do not use for more than one week without consulting a physician. When using this medication, temporary stinging, redness, swelling, and itching may occur. Adhere strictly to the prescribed dosage and administration and use for eye drops only. Take care not to let the tip of the container touch the eyelid or eyelashes, and do not use if the solution has become contaminated or cloudy. Avoid sharing the medication to minimize infection risk. When using with other eye drops, allow at least a 5-minute interval for instillation. If this medication is accidentally ingested orally, the risk of overdose is low. The preservatives contained in this medication may adhere to soft contact lenses, so do not use while wearing lenses, and wait at least 15 minutes after use before putting in the lenses.
