Precautions

This medication should not be used by individuals who are allergic to the active ingredient or any of the components. Those experiencing severe eye pain or those who have had allergic reactions (such as eye redness, itching, swelling, etc.) after using eye drops previously should consult a doctor or pharmacist before using this medication. Patients receiving treatment should also consult a healthcare professional before using this medication. If symptoms such as eye itching, swelling, pain, changes in vision, persistent redness, or irritation appear during use, or if symptoms persist for more than 72 hours, discontinue use immediately and consult a doctor. Individuals wearing hard contact lenses should discontinue this medication and consult a professional if they experience increased eye discharge or blurred vision. If this medication is accidentally swallowed, seek medical assistance immediately. This medication should be used strictly according to the prescribed dosage and administration instructions, and is for topical ocular use only. As it is a single-use product, do not reuse after the first use, and be sure to dispose of any remaining liquid and the vial. Take care to avoid contaminating the tip of the vial by preventing contact with the eyes or other objects. Do not use if the liquid has changed color or become cloudy. Do not use this medication while wearing soft contact lenses; remove contact lenses before instillation, and wait at least 15 minutes after instillation before reinserting them. When using this medication alongside other eye drops, instill them at least 15 minutes apart. This medication has a high viscosity, which may temporarily blur vision upon application; caution is advised. Unused single-use vials should be stored out of reach of children, ideally kept in the original box for safety.
