Safety Information & Precautions An all-encompassing warning lies within, so please go through it. This drug was once just not a pharma-grade OTC drug; it was prescribed by the doctor for a specific patient. The good doctor and the diligent patient, together. It can actually raise the intraocular pressure in patients if they use it for a longer period. Thus it is essential to keep that eye pressure monitored once in awhile. Infections should not be paired with nasal steroids. Do not use with viral infections (e.g. Herpes Simplex), eye infections caused by a fungus, or ocular tuberculosis, as steroids may mask or exacerbate inflammation. Put on contact lenses after utilizing Fluorometholone. Contemplate removing them for 15 minutes following utilization to reduce the quantity of Benzalkonium Chloride left on the lenses, which can result in the discoloration of soft lenses. Pregnancy/Lactation: Ask your doctor.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ's) Is Fluorometholone an antibiotic? No, Fluorometholone is a steroid used to decrease irritation and not fight infections. If there are any infections present, then oftentimes an antibiotic is used in conjunction. Can these drops be purchased for "Red Eye" without a prescription? Steroid eye drops must never be used on a red eye not diagnosed already. With viral infections such as Herpes causing redness, their utilization can indeed lend themselves to severe consequences, including complete eyesight reduction. 3. How long does it take for Fluorometholone to work? Most individuals start experiencing relief from itching and swelling within approximately 24 to 48 hours. If not, it is best that you seek the advice of an eye specialist. 4. Does it cause blurry vision? Yes, you may notice a burning or blurring sensation at the site of application right after putting it on (temporarily, of course!). Do not drive or operate heavy machinery until such a period as your vision is in the clear. 5. What should I do if I miss a dose? Apply the missed dose just as soon as you remember. However, if it is more or less time for your scheduled dose, skip the one and do not "double up" on drops.
