Tapcom-S Caution For Usage

Precautions concerning Use: 1) To reduce the risk of darkening of the eyelid skin, the patient should wipe off any excess solution from the skin.
2) When using nasolacrimal occlusion or closing the eyelids for 2 minutes, the systemic absorption is reduced. This may result in a decrease in systemic side effects and an increase of local activity.
3) If more than one topical ophthalmic medicinal product is being used, each one should be administered at least 5 minutes apart.
4) Contact lenses should be removed before instillation of the eye drops and may be reinserted after 15 minutes.
5) Patients should be instructed to avoid allowing the container to come into contact with the eye or surrounding structures as this could cause injury to the eye.
6) Patients should also be instructed that ocular solutions, if handled improperly, can become contaminated by common bacteria known to cause ocular infections. Serious damage to the eye and subsequent loss of vision may result from using contaminated solutions.
Incompatibilities: Not applicable.
