During use, neurological symptoms such as headache, dysgeusia, and dizziness may occur. Rarely, symptoms such as punctate corneal inflammation, eye pain, eye itching, eye discharge, and eye redness may occur, so caution is necessary. Symptoms such as nasal dryness, rhinitis, dry mouth, and contact dermatitis may also occur. There may be feelings of fatigue, so avoid overexertion. When using this medication, it should not be used in cases of irritation caused by contact lens wear, and vision may temporarily become blurred after administration, so driving or operating machinery should be avoided until vision returns to normal.

It can be safely used in children over 3 years old, and elderly individuals can also use it without special precautions. This medication is an eye drop meant for ocular use only, and it should not be taken orally or intravenously. When using, care should be taken not to let the tip of the container touch the eye directly, and to prevent contamination, the container should be closed tightly after use.
