Indications

Carmellose Sodium works as an artificial tear, and the lubricant in it is also called Carmellose Sodium. It is used to treat the symptoms of dry eye, such as soreness, burning, irritation or dryness. These symptoms happen when your eyes don't produce enough tears to keep them wet.

⚠️ Always consult a registered physician before taking any medicine.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Carmellose Sodium can be used during pregnancy, and it can also be used while you are breast-feeding.

⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Dosage Reference

⚠️ Reference ranges from official sources only. Consult your doctor for personalized dosing.

Adults: The usual dose of Carmellose Sodium is 1 to 2 drops in the affected eye, or in each affected eye, 4 times a day or as often as needed. You don't have to take out your contact lenses before using Carmellose Sodium. Check that the single-dose container is intact before you use it, and wash your hands first. Use the solution straight after opening. Don't let the open end of the container touch your eye or anything else, because that can contaminate the solution or injure the eye.
