Unibrom Eye Drop Bak Free

Introduction

Unibrom Bak Free is a prescription medication that contains the active ingredient Bromfenac. It is available under the brand name Unibrom Bak Free. This medication is primarily used to reduce inflammation and pain in the eyes caused by certain eye conditions or surgeries.

Uses

Unibrom Bak Free is commonly prescribed for the treatment of eye inflammation and pain following cataract surgery. It can also be used to manage inflammation associated with other eye conditions, such as non-infectious uveitis and dry eye syndrome.

Dosage and Administration

For adults, the usual dosage of Unibrom Bak Free is one drop in the affected eye(s) once daily. Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions regarding the exact dosage and duration of treatment. To administer the eye drops, wash your hands thoroughly and tilt your head back slightly. Gently pull down the lower eyelid to create a small pocket and squeeze one drop into the pocket. Close your eyes gently for a few moments to allow the medication to spread evenly.

Mechanism of Action

Bromfenac, the active ingredient in Unibrom Bak Free, belongs to a class of medications called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It works by inhibiting the production of certain substances in the body that cause inflammation and pain. By reducing inflammation in the eyes, Bromfenac helps alleviate discomfort and promote healing.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include mild stinging or burning sensation in the eyes, temporary blurred vision, and increased sensitivity to light. These side effects are usually temporary and should subside on their own. However, if they persist or worsen, it is advisable to seek medical attention. Serious side effects are rare but may include severe eye pain, eye redness, swelling, or vision changes. If you experience any of these serious side effects, contact your healthcare provider immediately.
