Brinzox Opthalmic Suspension

Always wash your hands before (and after) using Brinzox Opthalmic Suspension. This prevents you from passing the infection from one eye to the other. Remove the cap just before using your medicine and replace it as soon as you have finished. Avoid touching the nozzle of the bottle with your fingers. Tilt your head back and gently pull down your lower eyelid with a clean finger. Hold the bottle over the eye and allow a single drop to fall into the space between your lower lid and your eye. Close your eye and gently press your finger over the inside corner of your eye (over the eyelid) for about a minute. This helps prevent the drop from draining out of the eye. Repeat in your other eye if your doctor has told you to do this.

Ideally, you should use the drops regularly, three times a day, or as prescribed by your doctor.

When you instill the eye drops for the first time, it can make your eyes watery and may sometimes cause blurred vision. If this happens, it will quickly clear. Make sure you can see clearly again before you drive, or use tools or machines.

Although rare, headache is one of the side-effects of Brinzox Opthalmic Suspension. You may ask your doctor to recommend a suitable painkiller. If the headache continues, speak with your doctor.
