Camphor+chlorpheniramine+naphazoline+sodium Carboxymethylcellulose
About Camphor+chlorpheniramine+naphazoline+sodium Carboxymethylcellulose
Camphor+chlorpheniramine+naphazoline+sodium Carboxymethylcellulose belongs to the class of medications called ophthalmic agents, which are effectively used to treat eye allergies and dry eye conditions. Allergies can cause the eyes to become itchy, red, and watery when the immune system overreacts to substances like pollen. Dry eye conditions occur when the eyes do not produce enough tears or evaporate too quickly, causing discomfort and blurred vision. This leads to eye discomfort, dryness, and irritation.
Camphor+chlorpheniramine+naphazoline+sodium Carboxymethylcellulose contains camphor, chlorpheniramine, naphazoline, and sodium carboxymethylcellulose. Camphor provides a cooling and soothing effect to the eyes. Chlorpheniramine counteracts the effects of histamine and effectively treats swelling. Naphazoline constricts swollen blood vessels in the eyes, effectively reducing inflammation and swelling. Carboxymethylcellulose acts as a lubricant, alleviating dryness and irritation by promoting natural tear production. Together, Camphor+chlorpheniramine+naphazoline+sodium Carboxymethylcellulose provides relief for irritated eyes.
Camphor+chlorpheniramine+naphazoline+sodium Carboxymethylcellulose is for ophthalmic (eye) use only. Use the provided dropper to administer Camphor+chlorpheniramine+naphazoline+sodium Carboxymethylcellulose into your eye. You are recommended to follow your doctor's instructions for the duration of use, as it may vary depending on your specific medical conditions.
