Andrei Popov

General medicinePain medicine7 years of experience

Dr. Andrei Popov is a General Practitioner with specialized training in chronic pain. He provides online consultations for adult patients in Spain and other European countries.

Dr. Popov understands that seeking help with weight-related concerns or pain that has persisted for months can be difficult. Many patients come to him after trying different approaches without feeling truly heard. During the consultation, the doctor creates a comfortable and supportive, non-judgmental environment where the patient’s medical history can be discussed in detail, questions can be answered, and the next steps can be decided together.

Weight Management and Metabolic Health

Dr. Popov can help assess overweight, obesity, and related conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or metabolic disorders. During the consultation, the patient’s medical history, test results, current medications, and previous treatments will be reviewed.

If you would like to learn about possible medication options or have already started treatment, the doctor can assess your situation, review the effectiveness and tolerability of the therapy, and clearly explain its benefits, potential risks, and alternatives.

Not every patient requires the same treatment. A consultation does not guarantee a prescription — it provides an objective medical assessment and a plan tailored to your individual situation.

Pain and General Medicine

You can also consult Dr. Popov regarding:

* chronic pain, migraines, neuralgia, and fibromyalgia;

* back, neck, lower back, or joint pain;

* hypertension, diabetes, and follow-up of chronic conditions;

* review of test results, medical reports, and current treatment;

* preventive medicine and a second medical opinion.

How the Consultation Works

The video consultation lasts up to 30 minutes. The doctor will listen carefully, review the information you provide, and explain the next steps in clear and understandable language.

If additional tests, an in-person consultation, or urgent medical care are required, the doctor will inform you directly.

Dr. Popov’s goal is to make sure the patient feels heard and leaves the consultation with a clear understanding of their condition and the next steps they can take.

1. What is Fridex and what is it used for

This medicine contains the active substance dexamethasone, which is a corticosteroid indicated for the treatment of inflammatory symptoms (such as pain, heat, swelling, and redness).

This medicine is indicated for the treatment of eye inflammation.

If you have an eye infection (red eye, tears, and discharge), you will be given another medicine to use at the same time as Fridex (see section 2).

Doctor consultation

Not sure if this medicine is right for you?

Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

2. What you need to know before you start using Fridex

Do not use Fridex:

  • If you are allergic to dexamethasone phosphate or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
  • If you have an eye infection that may be caused by bacteria (acute purulent infection), fungi, viruses (herpes virus, vaccinia virus, chickenpox virus) or amoebas (a parasite);
  • If you have damage to the surface of the eye (small perforations, ulcers, or lesions that have not healed properly);
  • If you have high eye pressure and know it is caused by glucocorticosteroids (a family of corticosteroid medicines)

Warnings and Precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to use Fridex.

Do not inject, do not swallow this medicine.

Avoid contact between the tip of the dispenser and the eye or eyelids.

  • A strict eye control is needed during the use of Fridex, particularly:
    • For children and elderly people, more frequent control is recommended.
    • If you have an eye infection. Use this medicine only if you are being treated at the same time with an anti-infective medicine.
    • If you have a corneal ulcer (an open sore on the surface of the eye with sometimes extreme pain, tears, squinting, and vision loss) do not use this medicine, unless the inflammation is the cause of delayed healing.
    • If you have high eye pressure. If you have already had high eye pressure after an ocular steroid treatment, you are at risk of having it again if you use this medicine.
    • If you have glaucoma, a disease that can cause damage to the optic nerve and can cause vision loss.
  • Children: do not use for long-term treatment without a break.
  • If you have severe allergic conjunctivitis (redness, swelling, itching, and tears in the eyes) that another medicine has not been able to treat. Use this medicine only for a short period of time.
  • If you are diabetic, inform your ophthalmologist or optician about your disease before using this medicine.
  • If you have a red eye that has not been diagnosed, do not use Fridex without consulting your doctor first.
  • Avoid wearing contact lenses during the use of this medicine.

Talk to your doctor if you notice swelling and weight gain around the trunk and face, as these are usually the first signs of a condition called Cushing's syndrome. A decrease in adrenal gland function may occur after stopping long-term or intensive treatment with this medicine. Talk to your doctor before stopping treatment on your own. These risks are especially important in children and patients treated with a medicine called ritonavir or cobicistat (used in the treatment of HIV).

Contact your doctor if you experience blurred vision or other visual disturbances.

Other Medicines and Fridex

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used, or might use any other medicines.

If you are using other eye drops, wait 15 minutes before instilling the other medicine.

The combined use of eye drops containing steroids and eye drops containing beta-blockers (to treat high eye pressure) may cause calcium phosphate sedimentation on the surface of the eye.

Tell your doctor if you are using ritonavir or cobicistat (used in the treatment of HIV), as these medicines may increase the amount of dexamethasone in the blood.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before using this medicine.

There is not enough information on the use of this medicine during pregnancy to assess the possible risks. For this reason, the use of this medicine during pregnancy is not recommended.

It is not known whether this medicine passes into breast milk. However, the dose of this medicine is low, so this medicine can be used during breastfeeding if your doctor considers it appropriate and under medical supervision.

Driving and Using Machines:

You may have blurred vision for a short time after using this eye drop. Wait until your vision is normal before driving or using machines.

Fridex Contains Phosphates

This medicine contains 13.385 mg of phosphates in each bottle, which is equivalent to 2.677 mg/ml. If you have severe corneal damage (the transparent layer on the front of the eye), treatment with phosphates, in very rare cases, can cause blurred vision due to calcium accumulation.

3. How to Use Fridex

Follow the instructions for administration of this medicine exactly as indicated by your doctor or pharmacist. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or pharmacist again.

Recommended Dose

The usual recommended dose is 1 drop, 4 to 6 times a day in the affected eye.

In severe cases, treatment may start with 1 drop every hour and should be reduced to 1 drop every 4 hours when a favorable response is observed. Gradual discontinuation of treatment is recommended to avoid relapse.

Use in Elderly People

No dose adjustment of the medicine is needed.

Use in Children

Do not use this medicine in children for long-term treatment without a break.

Method of Administration

This medicine should be instilled into the eye. Do not inject or swallow the medicine.

  1. Wash your hands well before use (Figure 1).
  2. Remove the cap.
  3. Hold the bottle, pointing downwards, with your thumb and fingers.
  4. Look up and gently pull your lower eyelid down until a "pocket" forms between the eyelid and the eye (Figure 2).
  5. Tilt your head back and place one drop into the affected eye (Figure 3).
  6. Do not touch the dropper to the eye or eyelids, surrounding areas, or other surfaces. You could infect the eye drops.
  7. Immediately after placing the drop in the eye, gently press the tear duct (the edge of the eye that meets the nose) for a few minutes with your finger. This helps the medicine not to come out of the eye. (Figure 4).
  8. Close the bottle cap firmly immediately after use.

Duration of Treatment

You will need to use your drops for several days. Do not use this medicine for more than 14 days.

If You Use More Fridex Than You Should

If you have put too much medicine in your eye and notice lasting irritation, rinse your eye with sterile water.

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist immediately.

In case of overdose or accidental ingestion, consult your doctor or pharmacist immediately or call the Toxicology Information Service, phone: 91 562 04 20, indicating the medicine and the amount ingested.

If You Forget to Use Fridex

Do not use a double dose to make up for the forgotten dose.

If You Stop Using Fridex

Do not stop using this medicine abruptly. Inform your doctor if you are thinking of stopping treatment.

If you have any further questions about the use of this medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
