URSAPHARM * Allergocrom, eye drops * MA-No. 8980 *

Driving and using machines

After using the medicine, transient visual disturbances may occur for a few minutes, which may prolong the reaction time in people driving vehicles and operating machines.

Allergocrom contains benzalkonium chloride.

The medicine contains 0.50 mg of benzalkonium chloride in every 10 ml, which corresponds to 0.05 mg/ml.
An ophthalmologist should determine whether, despite the presence of allergic conjunctivitis, it is possible to use hard contact lenses.
Benzalkonium chloride may be absorbed by soft contact lenses and change their color. You should remove contact lenses before instillation and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. Benzalkonium chloride may also cause eye irritation, especially in people with dry eye syndrome or corneal disorders (the transparent layer at the front of the eye). If you experience any abnormal sensations in the eye, stinging, or pain in the eye after using the medicine, you should contact your doctor.

3. How to use Allergocrom

This medicine should always be used exactly as described in the patient leaflet or as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. If you have any doubts, you should consult your doctor or pharmacist.
Usually, it is recommended to instill 1 drop into the conjunctival sac 4 times a day.
The dosage is the same for adults and children.

Discontinuation of Allergocrom

Treatment with Allergocrom eye drops should not be discontinued after the symptoms have subsided; it should be continued until the allergen (e.g., pollen, dust) is no longer present.
If you have any further doubts about using this medicine, you should consult your doctor or pharmacist.

4. Possible side effects

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
In rare cases, transient eye burning, a feeling of a foreign body in the eye, conjunctival hyperemia, and edema may occur. These symptoms usually resolve on their own.
Some people may experience other side effects during use.
