Flucomet Eye Drop 5 mL

Flucomet Eye Drop 5 mL is an antifungal eye medication containing fluconazole as the active ingredient in a 5 mL eye drop formulation. Fluconazole belongs to the triazole antifungal class and is used to help treat fungal infections affecting the eye when prescribed by a clinician. This product is intended for eye use only and should be used exactly as directed. Flucomet Eye Drop 5 mL may be chosen when a doctor wants a topical eye treatment to deliver antifungal medicine directly to the affected area.

How it works: Fluconazole works by blocking a fungus from making ergosterol, a substance it needs to keep its cell membrane strong and alive. In eye drop form, Flucomet Eye Drop 5 mL delivers the medicine directly to the eye area so it can act where the infection is being treated.

Flucomet Eye Drop 5 mL is the specific 5 mL eye drop pack size, which may be convenient for a short prescribed course or for patients who need a measured, easy-to-use ophthalmic form. Because there are no other listed strengths or forms of Flucomet sold here, this product fits standard doctor-directed eye treatment rather than serving as a higher- or lower-dose sibling to compare against. A clinician may choose this form when local eye treatment is preferred over oral antifungal therapy.

• Fungal eye infection treatment
• Ocular yeast-related infection treatment
• Doctor-prescribed antifungal eye care
• Localized treatment for fungal inflammation of the eye

• Use only in the eye(s) your doctor tells you to treat.
• Wash your hands before and after using Flucomet Eye Drop 5 mL.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the pocket of the eye.
• Do not touch the dropper tip to your eye, fingers, or any surface.
• If you also use other eye medicines, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes between products unless your doctor says otherwise.
• If your vision is blurred right after dosing, wait until your vision clears before driving or using machinery.

Flucomet Eye Drop 5 mL provides fluconazole in a 5 mL ophthalmic eye drop pack, and the exact number of drops per dose depends on your prescription. It may be used once or several times a day depending on the severity and location of the infection, but your doctor decides the schedule and duration. Do not use more often or longer than prescribed, even if symptoms improve.

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

Common side effects of Fluconazole may include:

• Temporary eye irritation or stinging
• Burning or itching in the eye
• Blurred vision right after dosing
• Redness of the eye
• Watery eyes
• Mild eye discomfort

• Use only as an eye drop; do not swallow the medicine.
• Avoid wearing contact lenses during an active eye infection unless your doctor says it is okay.
• If you are sensitive to azole antifungals, tell your prescriber before using Flucomet Eye Drop 5 mL.
• Tell your doctor if you have a history of liver disease or heart rhythm problems, even though this is an eye product.
• Do not share the bottle with anyone else, because eye infections can spread.
• If you are using other prescription eye drops, space them out as directed to avoid washing out the medicine.
• Stop and seek medical advice if eye pain, swelling, or vision problems get worse instead of better.

• Other eye medicines, including drops or ointments, may interfere if used too close together.
• Strong CYP-related medicines such as warfarin, phenytoin, or some statins can interact with fluconazole if enough is absorbed into the body.
• Certain heart-rhythm medicines may increase the risk of abnormal heart rhythm when combined with fluconazole.
• Some diabetes medicines and seizure medicines may also interact with fluconazole exposure.

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