Expert advice for Solodex Eye/Ear Drops
Your doctor has prescribed Solodex 0.1% Eye/Ear Drops to treat inflammation (redness and swelling) of the eye. Do not skip any doses and finish the full course of treatment even if you feel better. Do not use Solodex 0.1% Eye/Ear Drops for more than the prescribed duration as it may cause glaucoma or secondary infection. May require frequent follow-ups with the doctor to monitor side effects. Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute immediately after instilling the drop. Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution. Stinging sensation may occur for 1-2 mins. Notify your doctor if it persists for longer. Make sure to use within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
