Mechanism of Action:
Fluoromethalone is a corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation, swelling, redness, and itching in the eyes. It exerts its effects by inhibiting the production of inflammatory mediators and suppressing the immune response in the affected area.
Uses:
These eye drops are typically used to treat inflammation and swelling in the eyes caused by various conditions such as allergic conjunctivitis, uveitis, and other inflammatory eye conditions.
Indications:
C-Flom eye drops are indicated for the treatment of inflammatory conditions of the eye, including conjunctivitis, keratitis, scleritis, iritis, and other inflammatory conditions affecting the eye.
Side Effects:
Common side effects may include temporary blurred vision, stinging or burning sensation in the eyes upon instillation, increased eye pressure, and irritation. Prolonged use or misuse of corticosteroid eye drops may lead to serious side effects such as glaucoma, cataracts, delayed wound healing, and increased susceptibility to eye infections.
Dosage:
The dosage regimen typically involves instilling one or two drops into the affected eye(s) every 4 to 6 hours initially, or as directed by a healthcare professional. Once improvement is observed, the frequency of administration may be gradually reduced. It is important to follow the instructions provided by your doctor or on the product label. Avoid using more than the recommended dosage or prolonging the duration of treatment without medical supervision to prevent potential side effects or complications. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare provider.
