Precautions

This medication should not be used by individuals who are allergic to the active ingredient or any of the components. If you experience severe pain in the eyes, have had allergic reactions (redness, itching, swelling, etc.) after using eye drops previously, or are currently undergoing treatment by a physician, you must consult a specialist before using this medication. If you experience symptoms such as itching, swelling, pain, or changes in vision during use, or if symptoms persist for more than 72 hours, you should stop using it immediately and consult a physician. If wearing hard contact lenses, be cautious as increased eye discharge or clouding of the lenses may rarely occur. If this medication is accidentally ingested, seek help from a specialist immediately. Be sure to adhere to the prescribed dosage and method of use, and it should only be used for instillation. Single-use containers should not be reused after one use; any remaining medication and the container must be discarded. Ensure the tip of the container does not come into contact with the eyes or any other objects to avoid contamination or harm to the eyes. Do not use if the medication has changed color or become cloudy. Do not use this medication while wearing soft contact lenses; lenses must be removed prior to use, and can be reapplied at least 15 minutes after instillation. When using other eye drops, allow at least a 15-minute interval between applications. This medication has a high viscosity and may temporarily cause blurred vision after instillation.
