FML-T Eye Drops is a sterile solution designed to manage specific eye conditions. Comprising two active ingredients, tobramycin and fluorometholone, these drops offer a combination of an antibiotic and a steroid.

Primarily, these eye drops are utilised for managing inflammatory eye conditions that respond to steroids and have a concurrent superficial bacterial infection. They are not intended for addressing other ocular issues.

FML-T Eye Drops manage redness, swelling, and inflammation in the eye. Adhering to the prescribed dosage and usage instructions from your doctor is crucial. Prolonged and indiscriminate usage of these drops may lead to serious eye conditions such as glaucoma, cataract, and fungal infections. Do not exceed the recommended dose provided by your doctor.

Common side effects of using these drops can be eye irritation, a sensation of burning, and eye swelling. Should these symptoms worsen or persist, contact your doctor immediately.

FML-T Eye Drops can be used to manage the following eye conditions:

Inflammatory eye conditions that respond to steroids: These drops help reduce redness, swelling, and inflammation in the eyes caused by certain conditions.
Superficial bacterial infections: FML-T Eye Drops can also manage superficial bacterial infections that affect the outer layers of the eye.
These drops may have other uses. Speak to your doctor for more information.

To apply FML-T Eye Drops correctly, follow these steps:

Wash your hands thoroughly before using the eye drops.
Shake the bottle well before use.
Read the instructions on the dos and don'ts of administering the drops carefully before using them.
Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
Hold the bottle upside down and squeeze it gently to instil one drop into the pocket.
Close your eyes gently for a few moments to allow the medication to spread evenly across the eye.
Avoid touching your eye with the dropper tip to prevent contamination.
Consult your doctor for specific instructions and advice on how to use this medicine effectively.

FML-T Eye Drops are used externally only and should not be taken any other way.

FML-T Eye Drops may cause some side effects. Here are a few common ones to be aware of:

Eye irritation
Burning sensation
Swelling of the eye

If these symptoms persist or worsen, stop using the drops and contact your doctor immediately. FML-T Eye Drops may also cause other side effects. Consult your doctor right away if you notice anything unusual while using them.

Managing the Side Effects:

To help manage these side effects naturally, you can try the following:

Eye irritation: Rinse your eyes gently with cool water to soothe any discomfort.
Burning sensation: Blink several times to distribute the drops evenly across your eye, which can reduce the burning sensation.
Swelling of the eye: Applying a cold compress to your closed eye for a few minutes can help reduce swelling.

FML-T Eye Drops contain two active ingredients: tobramycin and fluorometholone.

Tobramycin is an antibiotic that helps fight bacterial infections in the eyes.
Fluorometholone is a steroid that reduces inflammation in the eye.

The active ingredients work together to reduce redness, swelling, and inflammation in the eyes caused by certain inflammatory eye conditions that have bacterial infections on the surface.
