GENERIC: Prednisolone 1.0% (Ophthalmic Solution)

MANUFACTURER: Sante Pharma

QUANTITY

5ml eye drops

INDICATION

Optopred Drops 5ML is a corticosteroid ophthalmic solution indicated for the treatment of steroid-responsive inflammatory conditions of the palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva, cornea, and anterior segment of the globe. It is prescribed for allergic conjunctivitis, iritis, cyclitis, anterior uveitis, chemical and thermal burns, and post-operative inflammation following ocular surgery. Prednisolone is one of the most potent topical ophthalmic corticosteroids.

MECHANISM OF ACTION

Prednisolone acetate is a synthetic glucocorticoid that suppresses the inflammatory response by multiple mechanisms. It inhibits phospholipase A2, reducing the production of arachidonic acid metabolites including prostaglandins and leukotrienes. It stabilizes lysosomal membranes, reduces capillary permeability, decreases leukocyte migration and phagocytosis, and suppresses the production of inflammatory cytokines. The 1.0% concentration provides potent anti-inflammatory activity for moderate to severe ocular inflammation.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

●     For mild inflammation: instill 1 to 2 drops in the affected eye(s) 2 to 4 times daily

●     For severe inflammation: instill 1 to 2 drops every hour during waking hours, reducing frequency as inflammation subsides

●     Shake the bottle well before each use, as prednisolone is a suspension

●     Do not discontinue abruptly; taper gradually to prevent rebound inflammation

●     Treatment duration depends on clinical response; reassess regularly

●     Do not wear contact lenses during treatment

SIDE EFFECTS

Common:

●     Mild burning or stinging upon instillation

●     Blurred vision immediately after application

●     Increased tearing

Less common:

●     Elevated intraocular pressure (steroid-induced glaucoma), especially with prolonged use

●     Posterior subcapsular cataract formation with extended therapy

●     Secondary ocular infection due to immunosuppression

●     Delayed wound healing after corneal surgery or injury

NOT RECOMMENDED IN

●     Herpes simplex keratitis (dendritic ulcer) and other viral eye diseases

●     Mycobacterial or fungal eye infections

●     Known hypersensitivity to prednisolone or any component

●     Acute untreated purulent bacterial eye infections without concurrent antibiotic therapy

DRUG INTERACTIONS

Concurrent use with other corticosteroid eye drops may cause cumulative steroid effects and elevated IOP. NSAIDs used concurrently may increase corneal healing complications. Anticholinesterase agents for glaucoma may be less effective with concurrent corticosteroid use.
