D Panthenol+hyaluronic Acid
About D Panthenol+hyaluronic Acid
D Panthenol+hyaluronic Acid belongs to the class of medications called 'ophthalmologic agents' used in treating dry eyes. Dry eye is a condition in which there is decreased production of tears by lachrymal glands (tear glands) due to vitamin A deficiency, allergic eye diseases or eye infections. It causes damage to the eye's outer coverings (cornea and conjunctiva) and increases the risk of inflammation or infections.
D Panthenol+hyaluronic Acid is a combination of two medicines, D-Panthenol and Hyaluronic acid. D-Panthenol is derived from Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5). It has regenerative and anti-inflammatory properties and helps relieve dry eye symptoms and further damage to the eye. Hyaluronic acid is a complex polysaccharide or sugar naturally found in the eye. It is used as a component in eye drops to lubricate eyes and relieve dry eye symptoms.
D Panthenol+hyaluronic Acid is for ophthalmological use only. You should take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor. The common side-effects of D Panthenol+hyaluronic Acid are application site reactions such as burning/stinging sensation or redness in the eye, increased eye sensitivity to the light, stickiness of eyelashes, swelling of eyelids, blurred vision and watery eyes. These side effects are usually mild and temporary. Consult your doctor if these side effects persist.
Do not take D Panthenol+hyaluronic Acid if you are allergic to Hyaluronic acid, D-Panthenol or any other contents present in it. Before taking D Panthenol+hyaluronic Acid, inform your doctor if you have glaucoma (a condition with increased pressure in the eye), ulcers in the eye, have undergone or are scheduled for eye surgery or any other eye problems. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
