Precautions

This medication should not be used by individuals who are allergic to the active or inactive ingredients. If there is severe pain in the eyes, or if there have been allergic symptoms (such as redness of the eyes, itching, swelling, etc.) after using eye drops previously, it is essential to consult a doctor or pharmacist before using this medication. Patients undergoing medical treatment should also consult a healthcare professional before use. If itching, swelling, pain, changes in vision, continuing redness or irritation occur, or if symptoms do not improve, discontinue use immediately and consult a doctor. Individuals wearing hard contact lenses should stop using this product if there is excessive discharge or if the lenses become cloudy, and should consult a professional. If this medication is accidentally ingested, seek medical assistance immediately. This medication must be used strictly according to the prescribed dosage and administration, and is for topical use only. Do not reuse opened containers, and dispose of any remaining solution and container appropriately. Care should be taken to prevent contamination and eye injury by avoiding contact of the tip of the container with the eyes or other surfaces. Do not use if the color of the medication has changed or if it has become cloudy. If wearing soft contact lenses, do not use this medication and be sure to remove lenses before application; lenses can be reinserted after 15 minutes post-application. When using with other eye drops, maintain a minimum interval of 15 minutes between applications. Be cautious when applying this medication, as its high viscosity may temporarily blur vision. This medication should be kept out of the reach of children, and unused single-use containers should be stored in the original box.
