Converts methemoglobin (Fe³⁺) back to normal hemoglobin (Fe²⁺), restoring oxygen delivery. Urinary Tract Antiseptic (rarely used today) Has mild antiseptic properties in the urinary tract when used with other agents. Ifosfamide-Induced Encephalopathy Used off-label to counteract neurotoxicity caused by the chemotherapy drug ifosfamide. Intraoperative Staining Agent Surgeons and urologists may use it to identify structures (e.g., fistulas, ureters, sentinel lymph nodes). Vasoplegic Syndrome in Cardiac Surgery (off-label) Helps raise blood pressure in cases of refractory hypotension after heart surgery, by inhibiting nitric oxide pathways. Diagnostic Aid Sometimes used to help visualize certain body structures or to test for leaks (like gastrointestinal perforations). ⚠️ Important Warnings & Precautions Serotonin Syndrome Risk: Methylene blue is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) — do not use with SSRIs, SNRIs, or other serotonergic drugs.

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.

Bluecan Injection is a brand of Methylene Blue Injection, primarily used in medical settings for its diagnostic and therapeutic properties. ________________________________________ 🩺 Uses of Bluecan Injection 1. Treatment of Methemoglobinemia: Methylene Blue is the first-line treatment for methemoglobinemia, a condition where methemoglobin levels are elevated, impairing oxygen delivery to tissues. It acts as a reducing agent, converting methemoglobin back to hemoglobin, thereby restoring normal oxygen transport. 2. Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs): It is sometimes used as a urinary antiseptic to treat UTIs, although its use for this purpose has become less common with the advent of more effective antibiotics. 3. Surgical Dye: In surgical procedures, Methylene Blue is used as a dye to delineate tissues, identify sentinel lymph nodes, or assess organ perfusion. 4. Diagnostic Tool: It is used in diagnostic procedures to assess the function of certain organs, such as the kidneys, and to evaluate the patency of ducts. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Side Effects While generally well-tolerated, potential side effects of Methylene Blue Injection include: • Injection site reactions (pain, redness, swelling) • Headache • Dizziness • Nausea or vomiting • Skin discoloration (temporary blue or greenish tint) • In rare cases, serotonin syndrome, especially if used with serotonergic drugs ________________________________________ 💊 Mechanism of Action Methylene Blue acts by accepting electrons and donating them to reduce methemoglobin back to hemoglobin. This process restores the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood. It also inhibits certain enzymes and has antimicrobial properties, which contribute to its use in treating infections. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Precautions • Drug Interactions: Avoid concurrent use with serotonergic drugs (e.g., SSRIs, SNRIs, MAO inhibitors) to prevent serotonin syndrome. • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult a healthcare provider before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. • G6PD Deficiency: Use with caution in individuals with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, as it may cause hemolysis. • Renal Impairment: Dosage adjustments may be necessary in patients with kidney dysfunction
