Gatican-HS Eye Drops 5 ml should be taken in the dose and duration as advised by the doctor. If you take more than the recommended dose, it might cause unpleasant side effects. If you think your symptoms are not improving, please consult your doctor.
Do not take Gatican-HS Eye Drops 5 ml on your own as self-medication may lead to antibiotic-resistance in which antibiotics fail to act against specific bacterial infections.
Do not touch the tip of the dropper as it may contaminate the solution. Try not to share personal items until your eye infection is cured.
