It's important to use this medicine as directed by your doctor. Make sure you inform your doctor about any pre-existing health conditions or ongoing medications before starting this medicine. If you experience any side effects while using this medicine, notify your doctor immediately. For optimal results, ensure you continue using this medicine for the duration prescribed by your doctor.

Managing postoperative inflammation in patients who have undergone cataract surgery.
Providing relief from pain in the eyes after cataract extraction surgery.

Directions for Use of Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML

Administer Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML as follows:

Always ensure your hands are clean before using the drops.
Tilt your head back slightly and pull down on your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
Hold the dropper above the eye and squeeze out a drop.
Close your eye and gently press your finger to the inside corner of the eye for about 1 minute, to keep the liquid from draining into your tear duct.
If you are using other eye medications, maintain a gap of at least 5 minutes between each medication.
Consult your doctor for further specific instructions.

Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML are instilled topically into eyes.

Side Effects of Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML

Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML may have the following common side effects:

Abnormal sensations in the eye: This could include a feeling of something in your eye or a slight stinging sensation.
Redness of the eyes
Burning or itching sensation in the eyes
Eye pain: You may feel discomfort or aching in or around your eyes.
Headache
Iritis: This is inflammation of the iris, the coloured part of your eye, which can cause pain and blurred vision.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Abnormal sensations in the eye: If you experience this, try to blink several times to help spread the drops evenly across your eye.
Eye Pain: If you feel discomfort after instilling Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML, you might want to rest your eyes by closing them for a few minutes.

The active ingredient in Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML are Bromfenac (0.09%). It works on your body in the following ways:

Cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes inhibition: Bromfenac effectively blocks the COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes in your body. These enzymes are responsible for the production of prostaglandins, which are key mediators of inflammation and pain.
Decreases inflammation and pain: By inhibiting the COX enzymes, Bromfenac disrupts the production of prostaglandins. This action effectively reduces inflammation and alleviates pain in the eye after cataract surgery, helping speed up the recovery process.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while using Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before using this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Nursing mothers can use Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML, as very low quantities of bromfenac pass into breast milk, posing minimal risk to the infant. However, it's always a good idea to consult your doctor first.

Alcohol

Since Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML are used topically, interactions with alcohol are very rare and typically not a concern.

Allergy

Bromodrop Eye Drops 5 ML are contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to bromfenac or any other ingredients in the formulation. If you've experienced allergic reactions after taking NSAIDs like aspirin before, avoid using this medicine.
