About Boric Acid+chlorpheniramine+hypromellose+naphazoline+sodium Chloride+zinc Sulfate
Boric Acid+chlorpheniramine+hypromellose+naphazoline+sodium Chloride+zinc Sulfate is an ophthalmologic medication used to treat allergic eye conditions. It helps relieve symptoms such as eye redness, dryness, irritation, itching, and swelling caused by eye allergies or irritants like smog, dust, or chemicals. Eye allergies occur when the immune system reacts to an irritating substance, known as an allergen, that comes into contact with the eyes.
Boric Acid+chlorpheniramine+hypromellose+naphazoline+sodium Chloride+zinc Sulfate contains Boric Acid, Chlorpheniramine, Hypromellose, Naphazoline, Sodium Chloride, and Zinc Sulfate. Boric acid (an antiseptic) helps soothe irritated eyes and cleanse the eyes by removing irritants like smog, dust, or chemicals. Chlorpheniramine (an antihistamine/antiallergic) inhibits the action of certain chemical messengers (histamine) in the body that cause watery and itchy eyes. Hypromellose (an eye lubricant) helps relieve eye dryness and irritation. Naphazoline (a decongestant) works by narrowing the enlarged blood vessels in the eyes, reducing inflammation and redness. Sodium chloride helps draw water from the cornea, thereby relieving the swelling of the eye. Zinc sulfate (an astringent) helps relieve eye dryness/redness. Together, these ingredients of Boric Acid+chlorpheniramine+hypromellose+naphazoline+sodium Chloride+zinc Sulfate effectively relieve symptoms associated with allergic eye conditions.
