Indications & Uses
Pharmacology
HYLO DUAL contains sodium hyaluronate, a substance the body makes naturally. It is found in the eye and also in other tissues. Sodium hyaluronate spreads evenly over the surface of the eye and gives stable, long lasting lubrication, so it isn't rinsed away quickly.
The other ingredient is ectoine, a natural substance taken from microorganisms that live in extreme environments (e. g. salt lakes). These microorganisms make ectoine to protect themselves against those harsh conditions, and its specific properties are used in HYLO DUAL. Ectoine increases the binding of water at the cells of the ocular surface. This forms a physiologic barrier on the conjunctiva against substances that act as allergens. Ectoine also stabilizes the lipid layer of the tear film, which protects against excessive evaporation of tears.
Together, sodium hyaluronate and ectoine give intensive, long lasting lubrication of the ocular surface and protect against evaporation of tears. The typical symptoms of itching and burning, which occur as inflammatory reactions to irritations triggered by the environment and to allergic reactions, are relieved by HYLO DUAL.
Dosage Reference
Reference Information Only
Dosages shown are general references from official sources. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist for personalized dosing.
Adults:
Generally, adults and children 6 years and older put one drop of HYLO DUAL into the conjunctival sac of each eye, three times a day. If you use HYLO DUAL more often (for example, more than 10 times per day) or your complaints are more severe, you should see an ophthalmologist at regular intervals.
HYLO DUAL can be used while wearing contact lenses. After you insert your lenses, wait about 30 minutes before putting in the eye drops. This avoids intolerance reactions, which may occur because lens care products can interact with HYLO DUAL.
Based on the available evidence, HYLO DUAL may be used in children 6 years and older, and in pregnant and breast-feeding women. Don't use HYLO DUAL if you are hypersensitive to any of its ingredients, or in children younger than 6 years.
Side Effects
Adverse reactions are reported only in very rare cases. They include hypersensitivity, burning or excessive tearing, pain, a foreign body sensation, or other temporary local irritation. These stop once HYLO DUAL is discontinued. HYLO DUAL can also cause temporary blurred vision after you put it in, because the eye drop solution is viscous. In very rare cases this may bring on a temporary headache in sensitive patients.
Storage
Store HYLO DUAL at a temperature not above 25°C. Once you have opened the bottle, you can use it for 6 months. Don't use it after the expiry date, and keep it out of the reach of children.
