Ripatec Eye Drops 5Ml

Ripatec Eye Drops are used to lower raised eye pressure.

Uses of Ripatec Eye Drops are:

• Open-Angle Glaucoma: Lowers eye pressure to help protect sight.
• Ocular Hypertension: Reduces raised eye pressure before damage occurs.
• Vision Protection: Helps prevent long-term vision loss from high eye pressure.

Here's how to use the Ripatec Eye Drops properly:

• First, wash your hands thoroughly and instill the drops into the eyes as prescribed by your doctor.

• If irritation persists or increases, discontinue the use and consult your doctor.

• Avoid touching the tip of the dropper against your eye or anything else to prevent contamination.

• Always consult your doctor for personalised advice on using this medicine.

Ripatec Eye Drops are instilled topically.

Ripatec Eye Drops contains two active ingredients:

• Ripasudil (0.4%): This ingredient acts as a small-molecule Rho-associated kinase inhibitor. It helps in reducing the fluid pressure in the eyes by promoting the outflow of aqueous humour from the eye into the systemic circulation. Ripasudil works directly on the trabecular meshwork, increasing conventional outflow through Schlemm's canal.

• Benzalkonium Chloride (0.01%): This component serves as a preservative in the ophthalmic solution.

Together, these ingredients work to manage and reduce elevated intraocular pressure in adults suffering from ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma.

• Store Ripatec Eye Drops at room temperature, ideally below 25°C.

• Keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture, maintaining it in a dry place.

• Ensure the container is tightly closed after each use to prevent contamination.

• Keep this medication out of the reach of children for safety.

• Use the solution within one month after opening the container.

• Engage in regular eye exercises that can strengthen your eye muscles. This could help manage ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma better.

• Maintain a diet rich in antioxidants, particularly Vitamin A and C, which are known for their role in supporting eye health. Include more carrots, spinach, and citrus fruits in your meals.
