Special Precautions
Talk to the doctor or pharmacist before using TRUSOPT.
Tell the doctor or pharmacist about any current or past medical problems, including eye problems and eye surgeries, and about any allergies to any medications.
If any eye irritation or any new eye problems such as redness of the eye or swelling of the eyelids develop, contact the doctor immediately.
If TRUSOPT is suspected to cause an allergic reaction (for example, skin rash, severe skin reaction or itching), stop using this medicine and contact the doctor immediately.
Use in patients with liver impairment: Tell the doctor about any current or past liver problems.
TRUSOPT contains benzalkonium chloride: This medicine contains approximately 0.002 mg benzalkonium chloride in each drop which is equivalent to 0.075 mg/ml.
Benzalkonium chloride may be absorbed by soft contact lenses and may change the colour of the contact lenses. The patient should remove contact lenses before using this medicine and put them back 15 minutes afterwards.
Benzalkonium chloride may also cause eye irritation, especially if having dry eyes or disorders of the cornea (the clear layer at the front of the eye). If feeling abnormal eye sensation, stinging or pain in the eye after using this medicine, talk to the doctor.
Driving and using machines: No studies on the effects on the ability to drive or use machines have been performed. There are side effects associated with TRUSOPT, such as dizziness and blurred vision, which may affect the ability to drive and/or operate machinery. Do not drive or operate machinery until feeling well or vision is clear.
Use in Children: TRUSOPT has been studied in infants and children less than 6 years of age who have raised pressure in the eye(s) or have been diagnosed with glaucoma. For more information, talk to the doctor.
Use in the Elderly: In studies with TRUSOPT, the effects of this medicine were similar in both elderly and younger patients.
