Fluorometholone Powder

Product Description

Fluorometholone is a corticosteroid used in the treatment of inflammation in the eyes, such as in cases of conjunctivitis, uveitis, or post-surgical inflammation. It works by reducing inflammation and suppressing the immune systems response to various triggers.

It is typically available as an eye drop or ointment. Fluorometholone helps decrease symptoms like swelling, redness, and irritation in the eyes. It is considered a more mild corticosteroid compared to others, so it tends to have fewer side effects, especially when used for a short duration.

However, it should be used cautiously, particularly in people with certain eye conditions, such as glaucoma or cataracts, since prolonged use can increase intraocular pressure, potentially leading to those conditions. Always follow a healthcare providers recommendations regarding dosage and duration of treatment.
