Nepafenac 0.1% w/v, 5mL Eye Drops
SKU GME1177Eye Care
Product Introduction
Nepafenac 0.1% w/v eye drops are an ophthalmic anti-inflammatory treatment for pain and inflammation associated with cataract surgery. They are not an antibiotic and do not treat the cause of an eye infection.
How to use
Shake the suspension well. The 0.1% formulation is commonly used one drop three times daily around cataract surgery, beginning the day before surgery and continuing through the early postoperative period. Separate other eye medicines by at least five minutes.
How it works
Nepafenac penetrates ocular tissues and is converted to amfenac. Amfenac inhibits cyclo-oxygenase enzymes and reduces prostaglandin formation.
Side effects
Temporary stinging, blurred vision, irritation or a foreign-body sensation may occur. Rarely, topical NSAIDs can delay corneal healing or cause serious corneal damage.
Important information
Diabetes, severe dry eye, corneal disease, repeated eye surgery and concurrent steroid drops increase concern about healing. Aspirin or NSAID allergy and bleeding tendency are also relevant.
Uses
- Pain and inflammation associated with cataract surgery.
Benefits
Makes postoperative recovery more comfortable by reducing the prostaglandin-driven inflammatory response.
Is nepafenac a steroid?
No. It belongs to the NSAID class and reduces inflammation through a different pathway.
Can it replace postoperative antibiotic drops?
No. An anti-inflammatory does not provide antibacterial protection.
Why might treatment start before the operation?
Starting before surgery helps establish anti-inflammatory activity when the procedure triggers prostaglandin release.
Can 0.1% and 0.3% products use the same schedule?
No. These concentrations have different dosing schedules and should not be substituted without adjusting the plan.
What if pain or vision worsens after surgery?
Increasing pain, discharge or declining vision needs urgent postoperative assessment rather than extra self-administered drops.
