About MIL DROPS

MIL DROPS belongs to the class of medication called ‘ophthalmic agents’ primarily used to treat allergic eye diseases and provide relief from eye redness, itching, and swelling. An allergy is an immune system response to foreign elements typically not harmful to your body. Eye allergy is when the eye becomes red and swollen up, leading to inflammation, discomfort, and pain.

MIL DROPS is a combination of four drugs, namely: Chlorpheniramine (antihistamine), Naphazoline (decongestant), Boric acid, and Zinc sulfate (antiseptics). Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine (anti-allergic drug) that works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. Naphazoline belongs to the class of decongestants that works by narrowing the eye's swollen blood vessels to reduce inflammation (redness and swelling in the eye). Boric acid and Zinc sulfate are antiseptics that prevent the growth of microorganisms such as fungi or bacteria and provide relief from irritation and redness.

Use MIL DROPS as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to use MIL DROPS for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition. Some people may experience a burning or stinging sensation in the eyes, blurred vision, or watery eyes. Most of these side effects of MIL DROPS do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to MIL DROPS or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using MIL DROPS. MIL DROPS should be used in children only if prescribed by a doctor. Wash your hands properly before using MIL DROPS to avoid any infection. If you are using two eye medications, wait for at least 5 minutes before using the other eye medication. Do not use MIL DROPS in more than prescribed doses or for a prolonged time as it may worsen your symptoms or damage blood vessels in the eye.
