Nepalact 5 mL Eye Drop

Nepalact 5 mL Eye Drop contains nepafenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used in the eye. Each bottle provides 5 mL of eye drop solution, and it is prescribed to help reduce eye pain and inflammation, especially after cataract surgery. Nepalact 5 mL Eye Drop is not a steroid and works by lowering the body’s natural chemicals that cause swelling and discomfort in the eye. It should be used exactly as directed by an eye doctor.

How it works: Nepafenac in Nepalact 5 mL Eye Drop is converted inside the eye into its active form, which blocks prostaglandins, the chemicals that trigger pain and swelling. By placing the medicine directly in the eye, the drop works where inflammation is happening and helps ease post-surgical eye discomfort.

Nepalact 5 mL Eye Drop is a single-strength eye-drop product, so there are no other listed strengths or forms in this brand line to compare it with. The 5 mL bottle suits short-term, doctor-directed treatment where a measured volume is needed for repeated dosing over several days. Because nepafenac eye drops are used around eye surgery, a doctor may choose this form for targeted relief with direct delivery to the eye rather than a whole-body medicine.

• Relief of pain and inflammation after cataract surgery
• Reduction of post-operative eye swelling
• Doctor-directed treatment of ocular inflammation

• Wash your hands before using Nepalact 5 mL Eye Drop.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the eye.
• Do not let the dropper tip touch your eye, fingers, or any surface.
• Close your eye gently after dosing and press the inner corner of the eye if your doctor advises.
• If you use other eye medicines, wait at least 5 minutes between products unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Use only for the time period your eye doctor prescribes; do not stop early or use longer than directed.

Each Nepalact 5 mL Eye Drop bottle contains 5 mL of nepafenac ophthalmic solution. The exact dose and how often to use it depend on the surgery or condition being treated; doctors commonly prescribe one drop in the affected eye(s) on a schedule around cataract surgery, but the maximum daily amount and duration must be set by the prescriber. Do not increase how often you use Nepalact 5 mL Eye Drop unless your doctor specifically tells you to.

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