Precautions

This medication should not be used by patients who are allergic to protein-based medications or have previously shown hypersensitivity to any ingredients of this medication. Various ocular side effects such as itching, irritation, redness, conjunctivitis, and keratitis may occur; if such symptoms develop, discontinue use immediately and consult a physician. Rarely, hypersensitivity reactions such as discharge or pain in the eye, blepharitis, and dermatitis of the eyelid may occur; in such cases, stop using the medication and seek appropriate treatment. When used with other eye drops, side effects may be exacerbated; therefore, maintain at least a 30-minute interval between this medication and other eye drops. This medication is strictly for ophthalmic use, and care should be taken to avoid contamination by ensuring that the tip of the container does not come in contact with the eyelids or eyelashes. The benzalkonium chloride preservative included may adsorb to soft contact lenses; therefore, do not use this medication while wearing lenses, and wait at least 15 minutes after application before wearing lenses. To prevent contamination of the solution, it is advisable not to share it with others. Store in a location out of reach of children, protected from direct sunlight, in a cool place.
