Flomon 5 mL Eye Drop

Flomon 5 mL Eye Drop contains fluorometholone, a corticosteroid medicine used in the eye to reduce inflammation. This 5 mL eye drop is used for short-term treatment of allergic or inflammatory eye conditions such as redness, swelling, itching, and irritation. As a steroid eye drop, Flomon 5 mL Eye Drop does not treat bacterial or viral eye infections. It is meant for eye inflammation only when a clinician has decided the benefits outweigh the risks.

How it works: Fluorometholone works by calming the immune response in the eye, which helps lower swelling, redness, and irritation. As an eye drop, it delivers the medicine directly to the affected eye surface for local anti-inflammatory effect.

Flomon 5 mL Eye Drop is a standard ophthalmic liquid presentation, so the 5 mL bottle is meant for people who need a doctor-prescribed course of steroid eye treatment and can use the same bottle across several doses. Because it is an eye drop, it starts working locally in the eye rather than like a tablet taken by mouth, and a doctor may choose it when targeted anti-inflammatory treatment is preferred over stronger or systemic options.

• Allergic eye inflammation
• Eye redness and swelling
• Itchy, irritated eyes
• Steroid-responsive ocular inflammation
• Short-term treatment after eye irritation under medical supervision

• Use exactly as your eye doctor prescribes; do not change the dose or stop early without medical advice.
• Wash your hands before using Flomon 5 mL Eye Drop and avoid touching the dropper tip to your eye, fingers, or any surface.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the eye.
• Close your eye gently for 1–2 minutes after instilling the drop; pressing the inner corner of the eye may reduce drainage.
• If you use other eye medicines, wait at least 5–10 minutes between products unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Remove contact lenses before use and put them back only when your doctor says it is safe to do so.

Flomon 5 mL Eye Drop is a 5 mL bottle of fluorometholone ophthalmic suspension; the actual dose is not measured in milligrams per bottle and the amount used per dose is measured by drops. Doctors commonly prescribe 1 to 2 drops in the affected eye(s) several times daily, then reduce the frequency as symptoms improve, but the exact schedule depends on your condition. Do not use more often or for longer than prescribed, because the doctor decides the safest dose and duration for this strength.

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

Common side effects of Fluorometholone may include:

• Temporary burning or stinging after instillation
• Blurred vision right after use
• Mild eye irritation or discomfort
• Watery eyes
• Dryness or foreign-body sensation
• Mild headache in some people

• Do not use Flomon 5 mL Eye Drop if you have an untreated eye infection unless your doctor specifically tells you to.
• Longer use can raise eye pressure and increase the risk of glaucoma or cataracts, so follow-up eye checks may be needed.
• Tell your doctor if you have glaucoma, herpes simplex eye disease, or a history of corneal problems.
• Remove soft contact lenses before using the drops; the preservative may irritate the lenses and the eye.
• Do not use the bottle after the discard date or if the solution looks cloudy or contaminated.
• Use caution while driving or operating machinery if your vision is blurred after the drop.
• If symptoms do not improve or worsen, contact your eye doctor promptly rather than continuing on your own.

• Other eye drops or ointments, especially if used at the same time
• Other corticosteroids, including steroid eye medicines or steroid tablets
• Medicines that can mask infection signs, making eye infections harder to notice
• If you use multiple eye products, spacing them apart matters to avoid reduced absorption

Store Flomon 5 mL Eye Drop at room temperature, tightly closed, and keep the bottle clean and dry; do not freeze it.
