Winolap 5 mL Eye Drop

Winolap 5 mL Eye Drop is a prescription eye drop that contains olopatadine in a 5 mL pack size. Olopatadine is an antihistamine and mast-cell stabilizer used to relieve allergic eye symptoms such as itching, redness, tearing, and irritation from allergic conjunctivitis. Winolap 5 mL Eye Drop is applied directly to the eyes to help control seasonal or other allergy-related eye discomfort. It is designed for local eye treatment rather than whole-body allergy relief.

How it works: Olopatadine blocks histamine, one of the main chemicals that causes allergy symptoms like itching and redness in the eyes. In this eye-drop form, it also helps stabilize mast cells in the eye so less allergy-triggering chemical is released.

Winolap 5 mL Eye Drop is the 5 mL eye-drop presentation, so it is suited for people who need a convenient bottle for repeated eye use over the prescribed treatment period. Because this is an eye-drop form, the medicine works where it is placed and is chosen by a doctor when targeted relief of eye allergy symptoms is needed.

• Allergic conjunctivitis
• Itchy eyes due to allergies
• Red, irritated eyes from allergens
• Watery eyes related to eye allergies

• Use Winolap 5 mL Eye Drop only in the eye(s) your doctor tells you to treat.
• Wash your hands before and after putting in the drops.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the pocket without touching the dropper tip.
• Close your eyes gently for 1 to 2 minutes after use; do not rub your eyes.
• If you use other eye medicines, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes between products unless your doctor gives different instructions.
• Remove contact lenses before using the drops and wait before putting them back in, if your eye doctor says it is safe.

Winolap 5 mL Eye Drop is supplied as a 5 mL bottle; it does not mean 5 mL is used at one time, but that the product comes in a 5 mL eye-drop pack. The exact dose and how often to use it depend on the prescription and the condition being treated, and your doctor decides the schedule. Do not use more often than prescribed, because using extra doses is unlikely to work better and may increase side effects.

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

Common side effects of Olopatadine may include:

• Temporary eye burning or stinging
• Mild eye irritation
• Dry eyes
• Headache
• Unusual taste in the mouth after use
• Blurred vision briefly after instilling the drop

• Do not use Winolap 5 mL Eye Drop if you are allergic to olopatadine or any ingredient in the product.
• Do not let the dropper tip touch your eye, fingers, or any surface to avoid contamination.
• Do not wear contact lenses during an active allergic eye flare unless your eye doctor says it is okay.
• Avoid driving or operating machinery right after use if your vision is blurred.
• Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
• Use caution if you have other eye conditions such as glaucoma, eye infection, or severe dry eye.
• If symptoms last or get worse, you should be re-evaluated rather than increasing the dose on your own.

• Other eye drops or eye ointments may need to be spaced apart by several minutes.
• Contact lens solutions or lens wear can interfere with treatment if lenses are worn too soon after dosing.
• Medicines that cause drowsiness may add to feeling sleepy in some people, even though this eye drop mainly acts locally.
• Other allergy medicines may be used together only if your doctor says so, to avoid unnecessary duplication.

Store Winolap 5 mL Eye Drop at room temperature, tightly closed, and protect it from contamination, heat, and freezing.
