FZ-3 Eye-Ear Drops containing Fluconazole are primarily used to treat fungal infections of the eyes and ears. Fluconazole is an antifungal medication that works by inhibiting the growth of fungi. 🔹 Primary Uses Fungal Eye Infections (Ophthalmic Fungal Infections) Fluconazole in eye drop form is used to treat fungal infections of the eye, such as fungal keratitis or endophthalmitis, which can cause inflammation, pain, and potentially lead to vision loss if left untreated. Fungal Ear Infections (Otomycosis) FZ-3 can be used for treating fungal ear infections, also known as otomycosis, which is often caused by fungi like Aspergillus or Candida. Symptoms include itching, pain, and discharge from the ear canal. 🔹 How It Works Fluconazole is an antifungal agent that works by inhibiting the fungal enzyme lanosterol 14α-demethylase, which is involved in the synthesis of ergosterol, an essential component of the fungal cell membrane. By blocking this enzyme, fluconazole disrupts the fungal cell membrane, leading to fungal cell death or inhibition of growth. ⚠️ Common Side Effects Eye: Mild eye irritation or burning sensation upon application Blurred vision (temporary) Redness or stinging in the eyes Ear: Mild ear irritation Ear itching or discomfort after application Temporary hearing changes (rare) If any of these side effects persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider. 🔹 Usage Tips Dosage: Typically, 1–2 drops are applied to the affected eye or ear 2–3 times daily, as prescribed by your doctor. Application Instructions: Wash your hands thoroughly before applying the drops. For the eyes: Tilt your head back and gently pull down the lower eyelid to form a pocket. Instill the prescribed number of drops and gently close your eye for a few seconds. For the ears: Tilt your head to one side, apply the drops into the ear canal, and gently massage the ear to help the drops penetrate. If you are using other medications for the eyes or ears, wait about 5 minutes between applying each medication. Contact Lenses: If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying the drops to avoid any contamination. You can reinsert your lenses after 15 minutes. 🔹 Precautions Allergies: If you have a known allergy to fluconazole or other azole antifungals, do not use the drops. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Fluconazole should be used with caution in pregnancy, particularly during the first trimester. Always consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Underlying Conditions: Inform your healthcare provider if you have any liver or kidney diseases, as these conditions may affect how the medication works in your body. Systemic Absorption: Although FZ-3 is used topically, there is a possibility of systemic absorption. Monitor for any systemic side effects, especially with prolonged use.

Visiotears helps to lubricate eyes and treat mild to moderate dry eye conditions. Visiotears contains povidone and polyvinyl alcohol. Povidone lubricates and moistens film on the surface of the eye. Polyvinyl alcohol decreases the surface tension of the tears so that they spread more easily over the surface of the eye and don’t break into dry spots. It also has properties similar to the natural mucin (a type of glycoprotein) produced by the conjunctiva, which soothes and lubricates the eye and enhances the stability of the tear film. Visiotears is indicated for the relief from dry eye in cases of Keratoconjunctivitis sicca.

Tropicamide Ophthalmic Solution USP 0.5% is a sterile, anticholinergic eye drop used primarily for diagnostic purposes in ophthalmology. ________________________________________ 🔍 Primary Uses 1. Pupillary Dilation (Mydriasis): Tropicamide 0.5% is employed to dilate the pupil, facilitating detailed examination of the retina, optic nerve, and other internal eye structures during procedures like fundoscopy and slit-lamp assessments. 2. Cycloplegia: It temporarily paralyzes the ciliary muscle, preventing accommodation (focusing), which is useful in refractive error assessments. 3. Management of Uveitis: Tropicamide 0.5% is utilized in treating conditions like acute and subacute iridocyclitis, chronic iridocyclitis, and to prevent adhesions and disruptions of the iris and ciliary body. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Side Effects While generally well-tolerated, potential side effects may include: • Temporary stinging or burning sensation upon instillation • Blurred vision • Sensitivity to light (photophobia) • Dry mouth • Headache • Nausea or vomiting • Pale skin • Central nervous system disturbances, including agitation or confusion, especially in pediatric patients ________________________________________ 🧪 Usage Instructions • Administration: Instill one or two drops into the affected eye(s) as directed by your healthcare provider. • Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before application. • Hygiene: Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface to prevent contamination. • Post-application: Apply gentle pressure to the inner corner of the eye for 1–3 minutes to minimize systemic absorption. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Precautions • Driving and Operating Machinery: Avoid engaging in activities requiring clear vision, such as driving, until the effects of the medication have worn off. • Pediatric Use: Use with caution in children, as anticholinergic drugs may cause CNS disturbances. • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your healthcare provider before use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Tropind Plus is a combination ophthalmic solution containing Tropicamide 0.8% and Phenylephrine 5%. This formulation is primarily used for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes in ophthalmology. 🩺 Primary Uses of Tropind Plus 1. Pupillary Dilation (Mydriasis): The combination of Tropicamide and Phenylephrine effectively dilates the pupil, allowing eye care professionals to conduct thorough examinations of the retina, optic nerve, and other internal structures. 2. Cycloplegia: Tropicamide paralyzes the ciliary muscle, preventing accommodation (focusing), which is useful in refractive error assessments. 3. Uveitis Management: In cases of uveitis, Tropind Plus helps alleviate pain and prevents further spasms of the eye muscles. 4. Preoperative Preparation: Before surgeries like cataract extraction or retinal procedures, dilating the pupil is essential for clear visualization of the posterior segment. 5. Retinal Imaging: Facilitates procedures such as fundus photography and optical coherence tomography (OCT) by ensuring adequate pupil dilation. ⚙️ How It Works • Tropicamide is a parasympatholytic agent that inhibits the contraction of the circular muscle and paralyzes the ciliary muscle, leading to pupil dilation and cycloplegia. Phenylephrine is a sympathomimetic drug that causes contraction of the radial muscle of the iris, contributing to pupil dilation. Together, these agents produce rapid and effective dilation of the pupil, facilitating detailed eye examinations and procedures. ⚠️ Side Effects Common side effects may include: • Eye pain or stinging • Blurred vision • Sensitivity to light (photophobia) • Allergic reactions These effects are typically temporary and resolve shortly after the examination. 🧪 Safety and Precautions • Driving and Operating Machinery: Avoid activities that require clear vision, such as driving, immediately after application, as the solution can cause temporary blurred vision. • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult a healthcare provider before use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, as safety data may be limited. • Drug Interactions: Be cautious when using Tropind Plus with certain medications, especially monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) or tricyclic antidepressants, as interactions may occur.
