1. What is Mirazul and what is it used for

Mirazul belongs to the group of medications known as ocular decongestants.

Fenilephrine hydrochloride is a medication that belongs to the group of sympathomimetics used as decongestants, has a vasoconstrictor effect (causes narrowing of blood vessels), producing rapid and prolonged decongestion, relieving eye irritation.

Mirazul is an eye drop solution indicated to relieve eye irritation caused by smoke, air, dust, chlorine from pools, sea water, humid environments, contact lenses, cosmetics, eye fatigue, etc. in adults.

Consult a doctor if it worsens or does not improve after 5 days.

2. What you need to know before starting to use Mirazul

Do not use Mirazul:

  • If you are allergic to phenylephrine hydrochloride or any of the other components of this medication (listed in section 6).
  • If you have glaucoma (increased pressure within the eye), as the vasoconstrictive action of phenylephrine may lead to a temporary increase in intraocular pressure (pressure of the eye's fluids).
  • If you are taking any monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) medication (such as some antidepressants) or have taken it within 21 days of using Mirazul.
  • If you have any severe thyroid disease (overactive thyroid gland).
  • If you have dry rhinitis (inflammation of the nasal mucosa).
  • In children under 12 years old.

Warnings and precautions

  • If you have high blood pressure.
  • If you have advanced arteriosclerosis (advanced hardening of the arteries).
  • If you have orthostatic hypotension (decreased blood pressure when changing position).
  • If you have diabetes requiring long-acting insulin.
  • If you have heart disease, including severe ischemic heart disease (temporary decrease in heart blood circulation).

During administration, be careful not to touch the tip of the dropper with the eye, hands, or any other object. Close it immediately after use.

If no improvement occurs after 5 days of treatment or if symptoms worsen while using the medication, discontinue its use and consult a doctor.

Chronic use of this medication may cause rebound congestion in the eye.

When patients are not yet accustomed to contact lenses, they should not use this medication for more than 5 consecutive days without consulting a doctor, in order to avoid masking possible eye irritation due to incorrect contact lens adjustment.

If eye pain, headache, blurred vision, or changes in vision, eye sensitivity to light, or eye redness occur, consult a doctor.

Children

Mirazul should not be used in children under 12 years old as children appear to be more sensitive to the risk of severe adverse effects.

Mirazul is not recommended for children between 12 and 18 years old as there is inadequate clinical experience.

Use of Mirazul with other medications

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have used recently, or may need to use any other medication.
