Use of this medicine may cause burning, irritation, itching, and redness at the site of application in some people. These are usually temporary and resolve on their own. However, if they persist or get worse, inform your doctor. In case of accidental contact with your ears, nose, or mouth, rinse it with plenty of water. Do not use this medicine if you have a known allergy to any of the ingredients in this medicine. To make sure it is safe for you, inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. It is advised not to drive or operate heavy machinery immediately after administering this medicine as it may cause temporary blurring of vision.

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Hold the dropper close to the eye without touching it. Gently squeeze the dropper and place the medicine inside the lower eyelid. Wipe off the extra liquid.

Atrochlor D Eye Drop is a combination of three medicines: Atropine, Chloramphenicol, and Dexamethasone. Atropine is an anticholinergic medicine that works by making the pupil of your eye larger and relaxing the muscles in your eye. Chloramphenicol is an antibiotic that stops bacterial growth by preventing the synthesis of essential proteins required by bacteria to carry out vital functions. Dexamethasone is a steroid medicine that blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the eye red, swollen, and itchy.

Atrochlor D Eye Drop is used for the treatment of uveitis. Wash your hands after using the eye drops and avoid getting the product into the mouth. To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface. After applying Atrochlor D Eye Drop, close your eyes and place one finger at the corner of your eye. Apply gentle pressure for 1 to 2 minutes before opening your eyes. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Try not to blink or rub your eye. Do not wear contact lenses during treatment and for 24 hours after your last dose. The eye drops should be discarded 4 weeks after the first opening. Inform your doctor if you have been told you have a higher than normal pressure in your eye or if you have glaucoma. Atrochlor D Eye Drop may cause blurred vision which may last for some time. Make sure you can see clearly again before you drive and before you use tools or machines.
