Always use this medication exactly as directed by your healthcare provider. Follow these step-by-step instructions to apply the drops safely and effectively:

• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before handling the bottle.
• Shake the bottle well before each use to ensure the medicine is properly mixed.
• Tilt your head back slightly and look upward.
• Gently pull down your lower eyelid with your finger to create a small pocket.
• Hold the dropper directly over your eye. Avoid letting the dropper tip touch your eye, eyelid, hands, or any other surface to keep it sterile.
• Squeeze the bottle gently to let one drop fall into the pocket of your lower eyelid.
• Close your eye gently. Press your finger against the inner corner of your eye (near your nose) for 1 to 2 minutes. This helps keep the medicine in your eye and prevents it from draining into your body.
• Do not rub your eye or blink excessively. If you miss your eye, repeat the process.

• Avoid contact lenses during treatment: Do not wear contact lenses throughout your course of treatment, as they can harbor infection-causing organisms and may become damaged by the preservatives in the eye drops.
• Avoid eye makeup: Refrain from using eye makeup until the infection has completely resolved to help prevent reinfection.
• Protect your eyes from bright light: Wear sunglasses when outdoors if your eyes become sensitive to sunlight or bright lighting during treatment.
• Practice good hand hygiene: Wash your hands thoroughly before and after touching your eyes or applying your medication to help prevent the spread of infection.
• Use clean personal items: Change your towel and pillowcase daily and avoid sharing them with others to reduce the risk of spreading the infection.

• Inspect the eye drops before use: Do not use Gatex LP Eye Drops 5 ml if the liquid has changed color, appears cloudy, or contains unusual particles.
• Avoid contaminating the dropper: Never allow the dropper tip to touch your eye, eyelid, fingers, or any other surface, as this may contaminate the bottle and increase the risk of infection.
• Allow time between eye medications: If you are using other eye drops or ointments, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes after applying Gatex LP Eye Drops 5 ml before using the next eye medication.
• Use caution after application: Your vision may become temporarily blurred after using the drops. Avoid driving, operating machinery, or performing tasks that require clear vision until your sight returns to normal.
• Discard the bottle after opening: Throw away the bottle 4 weeks after opening, even if some medicine remains, to help prevent contamination and bacterial growth.
