Natadrops Eye Drop

Natadrops Eye Drop is a natamycin ophthalmic suspension used to treat fungal eye infections. Each bottle contains natamycin as labelled, a polyene antifungal medicine that works directly in the eye. Natadrops Eye Drop is prescribed when a doctor suspects or confirms a fungal infection of the cornea or other parts of the eye and wants targeted treatment with an antifungal eye drop.

How it works: Natamycin binds to fungal cell membranes and helps stop the fungus from growing and spreading. As an eye drop, Natadrops Eye Drop delivers the medicine right to the infected eye area, which helps treat surface fungal infections directly.

Natadrops Eye Drop comes in the labelled eye-drop strength, so it is meant for direct use in the eye rather than for oral or injectable treatment. Because there are no other strengths or forms of this brand listed here, the key difference is that this specific eye-drop product is chosen for local treatment where a doctor wants natamycin to act right at the infected eye surface.

• Fungal keratitis
• Fungal eye infection treatment
• Corneal fungal ulcers
• Ocular yeast or mold infections as prescribed
• Local antifungal eye therapy

• Wash your hands before using Natadrops Eye Drop.
• Shake the bottle well if your pharmacist or the label instructs you to do so, because this is an eye suspension.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the affected eye only.
• Do not touch the dropper tip to your eye, fingers, or any surface.
• If you use other eye medicines, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes between products unless your doctor gives different directions.
• Replace the cap tightly after each use and use the drop exactly as prescribed by your eye doctor.

Natadrops Eye Drop is used as an eye drop, and the exact dose per bottle is as labelled on the package. The medicine may be prescribed multiple times a day at the start of treatment, but the number of drops and how often you use them are decided by your doctor based on the infection and your response.

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

Common side effects of Natamycin may include:

• Temporary eye burning or stinging
• Eye irritation
• Mild redness of the eye
• Watery eyes
• Blurred vision right after instilling the drop
• Foreign-body or gritty feeling in the eye

• Use Natadrops Eye Drop only in the eye; do not swallow it.
• Remove contact lenses before using it unless your eye doctor says otherwise.
• Blurred vision may happen right after the drop, so be careful driving or using machinery until your vision clears.
• Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a history of eye allergy.
• Do not use the bottle past the expiration date or if the solution looks contaminated.
• Follow the full prescribed course even if symptoms start improving.
• If pain, redness, or vision gets worse, contact your eye doctor promptly.

• Other prescription eye drops or eye ointments may need to be spaced apart by several minutes.
• Contact lenses can interfere with treatment and may worsen irritation during active eye infection.
• Steroid eye drops may change how some eye infections respond to treatment and should be used only if your doctor directs.
• Tell your doctor about all eye medicines and any other medications you use, even if they are not taken by mouth.

Store Natadrops Eye Drop at room temperature in a tightly closed bottle, away from heat, moisture, and light, and do not freeze it.
