Barinep

Barinep Ophthalmic Suspension 0.1% 5ml.

Product Information:

Barinep Ophthalmic Suspension is a medication used to prevent and relieve eye pain and inflammation following cataract surgery. It also helps reduce the risk of macular edema (swelling in the back of the eye) in diabetic patients.

Key Features:

• Active Ingredient: Nepafenac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic prodrug.
• Usage: Apply the suspension directly to the affected eye as directed by your doctor.
• Indications: For adults undergoing cataract surgery to prevent and relieve eye pain and inflammation, and to reduce the risk of macular edema in diabetic patients.
• Precautions: Do not use if you are allergic to nepafenac or other NSAIDs. Avoid using if you have experienced asthma, skin allergies, or intense inflammation in your nose when using other NSAIDs. Topical use of NSAIDs may result in keratitis, and continued use can lead to corneal breakdown, thinning, erosion, ulceration, or perforation. Discontinue use if you notice any corneal health issues.

Important Warnings:

• Ocular Infection: The use of anti-inflammatory medicines may mask an acute ocular infection. NSAIDs do not have antimicrobial properties, so their use with anti-infectives should be undertaken with care.
• Contact Lenses: Avoid wearing contact lenses during the postoperative period following cataract surgery unless clearly indicated by your doctor.

Dosage and Indication:

Barinep is typically used as directed by your healthcare provider. It is essential to follow the prescribed dosage and usage instructions carefully to ensure effective treatment and minimize potential side effects.
