LOTEL EYE OINTMENT 5 GM

How LOTEL EYE OINTMENT 5 GM Works

• LOTEL EYE OINTMENT 5 GM contains a steroid that works by inhibiting the release of specific chemical messengers in the body known as prostaglandins. These prostaglandins are primarily responsible for causing inflammation, redness, swelling, and itchiness in the eye. By blocking the production of prostaglandins, LOTEL EYE OINTMENT 5 GM effectively reduces these symptoms, providing relief from discomfort and promoting healing.
• When the eye is exposed to allergens or irritants, the body's natural response is to release prostaglandins to combat the issue. However, an overproduction of these chemicals can lead to excessive inflammation and discomfort. LOTEL EYE OINTMENT 5 GM helps to regulate this response by suppressing the synthesis of prostaglandins, thereby minimizing the inflammatory effects on the eye. This targeted action helps to alleviate redness, swelling, and itching, allowing the eye to recover more quickly and efficiently.
• The steroid component of LOTEL EYE OINTMENT 5 GM works at a cellular level to interfere with the enzymatic processes that lead to prostaglandin formation. By specifically targeting the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes involved in prostaglandin synthesis, the medication effectively reduces the levels of these inflammatory mediators in the eye tissue. This mechanism of action makes LOTEL EYE OINTMENT 5 GM a potent anti-inflammatory agent for various eye conditions.

• Do not use LOTEL EYE OINTMENT 5 GM for more than the prescribed duration, as prolonged use may increase the risk of developing glaucoma or a secondary infection. Adhering to the recommended treatment period is crucial to avoid potential complications.

• Immediately after instilling the ointment, apply gentle pressure to the corner of your eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute. This helps to prevent the medication from draining away quickly and increases its effectiveness.
• If you are using other eye medications, wait at least 5-10 minutes before applying the next one to the same eye. This prevents dilution of the medications and ensures that each one can work effectively.
