Precautions

This medication should not be used by patients who are allergic to protein-based drugs. If symptoms such as itching, irritation, or redness occur, discontinue use immediately and consult a doctor. Additionally, rare instances of discharge or eye pain may occur, so caution is required. In addition, inflammation of the eyelid skin may occur, and if such symptoms arise, use should be stopped and appropriate treatment sought. This medication may have more severe side effects when used with other eye medications, so if using other eye drops, a gap of about 30 minutes should be maintained. It is for ophthalmic use only, and care should be taken not to let the tip of the container touch the eye or eyelashes. When using for the first time, discard 1-2 drops to remove any foreign substances at the tip of the container. Once opened, do not store any remaining solution and dispose of it immediately, and it is safe not to share with others. Store out of reach of children, and keep in a cool place away from direct sunlight. Transferring the medication to another container may pose a risk of misuse and may alter the quality, so it should be kept in the original container.
