Precautions

This medication should not be used by individuals who are allergic to the active ingredient or any components. If there is severe eye pain or a history of allergic reactions after using eye drops, it is essential to consult a doctor or pharmacist before use. Patients currently receiving treatment should also consult a healthcare professional before using this medication. If any itching, swelling, pain, vision changes, persistent redness, or irritation occur during use, or if symptoms persist for more than 72 hours, the use should be stopped immediately and a doctor consulted. Individuals wearing hard contact lenses should stop using this medication if they experience excessive crusting or clouding of the lenses and seek advice from a professional. If this medication is accidentally ingested, immediate professional help should be sought. The prescribed dosage and administration must be strictly followed, and this medication is intended for ocular use only. The container used once should not be reused, and any remaining medication and container must be discarded. Care should be taken to prevent the tip of the container from coming into contact with the eye or any other surfaces to avoid contamination or injury to the eye. It is safest not to use the medication if the color changes or becomes cloudy. This medication should not be used while wearing soft contact lenses; the lenses must be removed before use and can be worn again 15 minutes after instillation. When using this medication with other eye drops, it should be administered at least 15 minutes apart. This medication has a high viscosity, which may cause temporary blurry vision upon instillation. Unused single-use containers should be stored out of reach of children and kept in the original box.
