Important information about Flarex
How does Flarex work?
The active ingredient in Flarex is fluorometholone acetate. It is a topical ophthalmic corticosteroid that works by reducing inflammation in the eyes to relieve symptoms of redness, pain, and itchiness.
How do you use Flarex?
Follow all directions given to you by your doctor and read all documents provided, including the full Prescribing Information, FDA-Approved Product Labeling, Instructions for Use, and Medication Guide before using Flarex. However, the following is a synopsis of the general guidelines for the use of Flarex:
1. Wash your hands before and after each use.
2. Do not allow the dropper tip to touch your eye, fingers, or any other surface during instillation to avoid contamination. Shake the bottle well before use.
3. To apply the drop, tilt your head up and pull down on your lower eyelid of the affected eye while looking up. Then drop one drop of the solution into your eye.
4. Following administration, close your eyes gently and hold pressure on your tear duct (inner corner of your eye, by your nose) for one minute. Then repeat for the other eye if needed.
5. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before administering travoprost, then you can re-insert them 15 minutes after.
6. If you use more than one eye drop, wait at least 5 minutes between administrations.
7. It is recommended to apply the drop in the evening due to side effects (blurred vision) and increased contact time during sleep.
8. If inflammation or pain lasts longer than 48 hours, advise a physician.
What are the side effects of Flarex?
The most common side effects of Flarex seen in clinical trials as compared to placebo include:
- Eye irritation.
- Eye discharge.
- Eye pain.
- Blurry vision.
- Abnormal taste (dysgeusia).
Some individuals may experience serious side effects while using Flarex. These side effects may require immediate medical attention. If you experience any of the following, contact your healthcare provider or seek emergency medical help:
- Increased pressure in the eye (intraocular pressure) and thinning of the cornea, which can lead to glaucoma, cataract formation, and delayed wound healing.
- Infection of the eye, including fungal infections, bacterial infections, or viral infections. This is more likely with prolonged use.
- Serious life-threatening allergic reactions, which may present as skin rash, hives, swelling of the face, mouth, or tongue, and/ or trouble breathing.
These are not all of the possible side effects of Flarex. You should always seek medical advice from your healthcare provider for any questions or concerns about your medical condition or treatment. Read all patient information, medication guides, or drug information sheets that come with this medication. You can also report adverse effects to the Food and Drug Administration at www.fda.gov/medwatch or 1-800-FDA-1088.
