Dosage of Ivycrom

• Adults and Children: Usually 1 to 2 drops in each eye, 4 times daily.
• Consistency: For the best results, start using the drops a few days before you expect to encounter allergens (e.g., before the start of hay fever season).

Proper Administration

1. Wash Hands: Always wash your hands before handling the bottle.
2. Preparation: Tilt your head back and gently pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
3. Application: Hold the dropper above the eye. Look up and squeeze one drop into the pocket.
4. Avoid Contamination: Do not let the tip of the dropper touch your eye, eyelashes, or any other surface.
5. Close & Press: Close your eye for a minute and press gently on the inner corner (near the nose) to prevent the drop from draining away too quickly.
6. Repeat: If you need a second drop, wait about 5 minutes before applying it.

How to Store and Dispose of Ivycrom

• Storage: Store in a cool place below 25°C. Keep the bottle tightly closed in its outer carton to protect it from light.
• The 28-Day Rule: Discard the bottle 28 days after first opening, even if there is liquid left. This prevents bacterial contamination.
• Disposal: Keep out of reach of children.

Quick Tips for Ivycrom

• Contact Lenses: Avoid wearing soft contact lenses while using these drops, as the preservative (Benzalkonium Chloride) can discolor the lenses and cause eye irritation. Wait at least 15 minutes after application before reinserting lenses.
• Regular Use: This medicine works best when used regularly. Do not stop use just because your eyes feel better if you are still in an allergic environment.
• Cooling Effect: Some users find that keeping the drops in the refrigerator (not freezer) provides an extra soothing, cooling sensation upon application.
