Missed a Dose

If it is almost time for the next instillation, skip the missed dose and instil the drops at the time of the next dose as planned. Avoid overuse of this medicine to compensate for the missed dose.

Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

  • Our eyes continuously produce tears and store them in a sac-like structure in the eyes. When there is a decrease in the production of tears, it leads to the drying of the eyes which causes further irritation, redness and itching.
  • Carboxymethylcellulose present in Genteal Eye drops has a high viscosity which prevents the drainage of tears and increases the retention time in the eye. Thus, the tears that are formed are retained in the eyes for a longer time, lubricating the eyes.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

  • Inform your doctor about any other medicine, supplement or OTC products that you are currently consuming.
  • If you use another eye drop product along with this medicine, keep a minimum gap of 15 minutes between the application of both the medicines.
