1. What is FYDRANE and what is it used for
What is FYDRANE
This medicine is a solution for injection into the eye.
It contains three active substances:
- Tropicamide, which belongs to a group of medicines that block the passage of impulses through nerves (known as anticholinergics),
- Phenylephrine (as phenylephrine hydrochloride) which belongs to a group of medicines that mimic the effects of impulses transmitted through certain nerves (which belong to alpha-sympathomimetics),
- Lidocaine (as lidocaine hydrochloride monohydrate) which belongs to a group of medicines called local anesthetics of the amide type.
What it is used for
This medicine is used only in adults.
It will be administered by your ophthalmic surgeon through an injection into the eye at the start of cataract surgery (opacity of the lens) to dilate the pupil of your eye (mydriasis) and obtain anesthesia in your eye during the surgical procedure.
2. What you need to know before starting to use FYDRANE
FYDRANE should not be administered to you:
- if you are allergic to tropicamide, phenylephrine hydrochloride, and/or lidocaine hydrochloride monohydrate or to any of the other components of this medicine (listed in section 6),
- if you are allergic to amide-type anesthetics (such as articaine, bupivacaine, mepivacaine, prilocaine, ropivacaine),
- if you are allergic to atropine derivatives.
Warnings and Precautions
FYDRANE is not recommended:
- in cataract surgery combined with a certain type of eye surgery (vitrectomy),
- if the anterior part (anterior chamber) of your eye is shallow,
- if you have ever suffered from an acute increase in eye pressure (acute angle-closure glaucoma).
Consult your doctor if you have:
- high blood pressure (hypertension)
- thickening of the arterial walls (arteriosclerosis)
- any heart disease, and particularly if it affects heart rate,
- a contraindication to medications that increase blood pressure (vasopressor amines: epinephrine, norepinephrine, dopamine, dobutamine) by systemic route,
- overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism),
- prostate gland disorders,
- seizures (epilepsy),
- any liver or kidney disease,
- any respiratory problems,
- muscle weakness and loss of muscle function (myasthenia gravis).
Using FYDRANE with other medicines
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used, or may need to use any other medicine.
Pregnancy, Breastfeeding, and Fertility
This medicine should not be used:
- during pregnancy
- during breastfeeding
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your doctor or pharmacist before using this medicine.
Driving and Using Machines
FYDRANE has a moderate influence on the ability to drive and use machines. Therefore, you should not drive and/or use machines until your vision is normal.
FYDRANE contains sodium
This medicine contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per dose; this is, essentially "sodium-free".
3. How to use FYDRANE
This medicine should only be administered if you have already demonstrated, in a preoperative evaluation, satisfactory pupil dilation with a topical mydriatic.
Dose and Method of Administration
- FYDRANE injectable solution should be administered by an ophthalmic surgeon, with local anesthesia, at the start of cataract surgery.
- The recommended dose is 0.2 ml of solution in a single injection. No additional doses should be injected since no cumulative effects have been demonstrated and because an increase in endothelial cell loss has been observed.
- The same dose is used in adults and in elderly patients.
If you are given too much or too little FYDRANE:
Your medication will be administered by an ophthalmic surgeon. It is unlikely that you will be given an overdose. An overdose may cause loss of corneal endothelial cells (cells of a layer that covers the posterior surface of the cornea).
If you have any further questions about the use of this product, ask your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse.
4. Possible Side Effects
Like all medicines, this medicine can have side effects, although not everyone gets them.
The most serious known complications occur during or after cataract surgery:
Uncommon: may affect up to 1 in 100 people
- Damage to the lens (posterior capsule rupture),
- Inflammation of the retina (cystoid macular edema).
Please seek urgent medical attention in these cases.
Other side effects:
Uncommon: may affect up to 1 in 100 people
- Headache,
- Inflammation of the cornea (keratitis), increased pressure in the eye, redness of the eye (ocular hyperemia),
- High blood pressure (hypertension).

How to Prepare and Administer FYDRANE
Single use of the solution for one eye by intracameral route only.
FYDRANE should be administered by intracameral injection into the anterior chamber of the eye, by an ophthalmic surgeon, under aseptic conditions recommended for cataract surgery.
Before intracameral injection, the solution should be visually inspected and only used if it is a clear solution with a slight yellow to slightly brownish color and practically free of visible particles.
The recommended dose is 0.2 ml of FYDRANE; no additional dose should be injected since no significant cumulative effects have been demonstrated and because an increase in endothelial cell loss has been observed.
The product should be used immediately after opening the ampoule and should not be reused for the other eye or for any other patient.
Only for the kit presentation (i.e., blister containing an ampoule and a needle): attach the detachable label from the blister to the patient's medical history.
