Baklot 5 mL Eye Drop

Baklot 5 mL Eye Drop is a prescription eye medicine that contains difluprednate, a corticosteroid used to reduce inflammation in the eye. Each drop delivers difluprednate as an ophthalmic suspension from the 5 mL bottle, and it is used for inflammatory eye conditions such as postoperative eye inflammation and certain steroid-responsive eye inflammations. Baklot 5 mL Eye Drop helps calm redness, swelling, and irritation when a doctor decides a steroid eye drop is appropriate. Because it is a steroid, it should be used exactly as directed and not for routine eye redness or infection.

How it works: Difluprednate is a corticosteroid, which means it lowers the eye’s inflammatory response by blocking substances that cause swelling, pain, and redness. As an eye drop, Baklot 5 mL Eye Drop works directly at the surface of the eye to reduce inflammation where it is needed.

Baklot 5 mL Eye Drop is provided as a 5 mL eye drop bottle, which is a practical size for a full prescribed course and for patients who need several days of treatment. Since there are no other Baklot strengths or forms listed here, this product fits standard ophthalmic use where the doctor chooses the dose and duration based on the severity of eye inflammation and the response to treatment.

• Postoperative eye inflammation
• Steroid-responsive eye inflammation
• Eye redness and swelling due to inflammation
• Painful inflamed eye conditions as prescribed by a doctor

• Wash your hands before using Baklot 5 mL Eye Drop.
• Shake the bottle well if the label or pharmacist instructs you to do so for this suspension.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the eye without touching the tip.
• Close your eye gently for 1 to 2 minutes after use and avoid blinking hard or rubbing the eye.
• If you use other eye medicines, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes between products unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Do not wear contact lenses unless your eye doctor says it is safe while using this steroid eye drop.

Baklot 5 mL Eye Drop is supplied as a 5 mL bottle, not a fixed amount per dose; the doctor prescribes how many drops to use each time. It may be used more than once a day depending on the eye condition, but the exact frequency and the maximum number of doses per day are decided by the prescriber. Use it only for the duration your doctor recommends, because difluprednate eye drops are meant for short-term, supervised treatment.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Difluprednate may include:

• Temporary blurred vision after instilling the drop
• Mild burning or stinging in the eye
• Eye irritation or discomfort
• Watery eyes
• Itching or redness
• Sensitivity to light
• Increased eye pressure with ongoing use, which may be more likely if used longer than prescribed

• Use only in the eye; do not swallow or inject Baklot 5 mL Eye Drop.
• Tell your doctor if you have glaucoma, high eye pressure, or a history of cataracts.
• Do not use longer or more often than prescribed, because steroid eye drops can raise eye pressure and delay healing.
• Avoid contact lenses during treatment unless your eye doctor specifically allows them.
• Use caution when driving or reading right after a dose because temporary blurred vision can occur.
• Tell your doctor if you have a current eye infection, especially herpes simplex infection, because steroid drops can worsen some infections.
• If you are using other eye drops, separate them as instructed to prevent washing out the medicine.

• Other ophthalmic steroids
• Other eye medicines used at the same time without spacing doses
• Medicines that can raise eye pressure, if you already have glaucoma risk
• Contact lens wear during active treatment

Store Baklot 5 mL Eye Drop at room temperature, tightly closed, and keep the bottle clean and protected from contamination.
