Can I use eye drops before bedtime?
If the eye is closed immediately after the drops are placed, it is possible that the drug solution will remain on the surface of the eye longer than if the drops were placed while the patient is awake, which could affect the cornea and conjunctiva.

Other
Why do I taste eye drops when I put them in my eyes?
After the eye drops are dropped, they flow down the throat through the nasolacrimal duct, which connects the eyes to the back of the nose. Therefore, some of the ingredients in the formula may have a taste.
If the taste bothers you, you can reduce the flow of eye drops down your throat by closing your eyelids and holding your eye lids for a moment after dropping the drops.
Do red eye drops contain coloring agents?
No, no coloring agents are used. The red color of the solution is the color of cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12), one of the active ingredients.
If the drops adhere to clothing, rinse immediately with water.

Usually these sensations are temporary, but if pain or irritation persists or other discomfort is experienced, discontinue use immediately and consult a physician, pharmacist, or registered distributor.
My eyes became bloodshot after using eye drops. What should I do?

There is a white floating substance (fluffy stuff) in the eye drops, can I use them as they are?
Do not use if you notice any changes in the eye drops.
When the tip of the container touches the eyelid or eyelashes, eye debris, dust, etc. may be sucked into the container and become a white floating substance. Use of such chemicals may cause infection.
