About Naphazoline Hydrochloride+chlorpheniramine Maleate+hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose+boric Acid+sodium Chlroide+zinc Sulphate
Naphazoline Hydrochloride+chlorpheniramine Maleate+hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose+boric Acid+sodium Chlroide+zinc Sulphate belongs to the class of medicines called ‘ophthalmic agents’ primarily used to treat allergic eye diseases and provide relief from eye redness, itching, and swelling. An allergy occurs when your immune system reacts to substances that are usually harmless to your body. Eye allergy is when the eye becomes red and swollen up, leading to inflammation, discomfort, and pain.
Naphazoline Hydrochloride+chlorpheniramine Maleate+hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose+boric Acid+sodium Chlroide+zinc Sulphate is a combination of six drugs, namely: Naphazoline hydrochloride (decongestant), chlorpheniramine maleate (antihistamine), hydroxyl propyl methyl cellulose (an eye lubricant), boric acid, sodium chloride and zinc sulphate (antiseptics). Naphazoline hydrochloride belongs to the class of decongestants that works by narrowing the eye's swollen blood vessels to reduce inflammation (redness and swelling in the eye). Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine (anti-allergy drug) that works by preventing the activity of histamine, which is the chemical that triggers allergic reactions. Hydroxyl propyl methyl cellulose (an eye lubricant) helps relieve eye dryness and irritation. Sodium chloride helps draw water from the cornea, thereby relieving the swelling of the eye. Boric acid and Zinc sulphate are antiseptics that prevent the growth of microorganisms such as fungi or bacteria and provide relief from irritation and redness. Together, these ingredients of Naphazoline Hydrochloride+chlorpheniramine Maleate+hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose+boric Acid+sodium Chlroide+zinc Sulphate effectively relieve symptoms associated with allergic eye conditions.
Naphazoline Hydrochloride+chlorpheniramine Maleate+hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose+boric Acid+sodium Chlroide+zinc Sulphate is for ophthalmic (eye) use only. You are advised to use Naphazoline Hydrochloride+chlorpheniramine Maleate+hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose+boric Acid+sodium Chlroide+zinc Sulphate for as long as your doctor has prescribed, based on your medical condition. Sometimes, you may experience common side effects such as a mild burning or stinging sensation in the eyes, blurred vision, and dilated pupils. These side effects do not require medical attention and are generally resolved over time. However, you are advised to consult your doctor if these side effects persist or worsen.
Before using Naphazoline Hydrochloride+chlorpheniramine Maleate+hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose+boric Acid+sodium Chlroide+zinc Sulphate, inform your doctor if you are allergic to any of its ingredients and about all the prescription and non-prescription medications you are taking, especially eye medications and products.

Avoid driving or operating machinery until your vision is clear, as the administration of Naphazoline Hydrochloride+chlorpheniramine Maleate+hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose+boric Acid+sodium Chlroide+zinc Sulphate may cause temporary blurred vision. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using Naphazoline Hydrochloride+chlorpheniramine Maleate+hydroxy Propyl Methyl Cellulose+boric Acid+sodium Chlroide+zinc Sulphate.
