Optrex Allergy

Optrex Allergy 2% w/v Eye Drops contain the active ingredient known as sodium cromoglicate and are used to ease the signs of allergic reactions such as watery, itchy, bloodshot or infected eyes and swollen eyelids.

Optrex Allergy 2% w/v Eye Drops are available in this dosage only.

The active ingredient, sodium cromoglicate, prevents the body from releasing the substances which cause allergic reactions. Allergy symptoms could include watery, itchy, red or inflamed eyes and swollen eyelids and are caused by allergies such as hay fever, dust mites and other irritants such as pet hair.

The active ingredient is an anti-allergy medicine and works by preventing the body from releasing the substances which cause the allergic reaction. When used as directed, Optrex Allergy 2% w/v Eye Drops are proven to reduce the symptoms of allergies such as hay fever, dust mites and other irritants such as pet hair.

Optrex Allergy 2% w/v Eye Drops do not require a prescription, but buyers must be aged 16 years or older. They are available to order from Click Pharmacy with next-day delivery available.

Optrex Allergy 2% w/v Eye Drops comes in a 10ml bottle which contains 200 mg of Sodium Cromoglicate. It is suitable for adults and children and is only to be used in the eyes. Insert 1-2 drops into each eye 4 times per day or as directed by your doctor.

Like all medicines, this medicine may cause side effects. Stop using immediately if the itching, redness and swelling becomes more severe, as you may be allergic to the eye drops. You may experience mild eye irritation or some stinging/burning and blurring of eyesight, which should only happen for a short time after using them. 

If symptoms persist for longer than a few days or become serious, speak to your doctor or pharmacist. Side effects may vary, so talk to your doctor or consult our specialists at Click Pharmacy should you require any further advice.

Optrex Allergy 2% w/v Eye Drops and Opticrom Allergy Single Dose 2% w/v Eye Drops both have Sodium Cromoglicate 2% as the active ingredient. Opticrom Allergy Single Dose 2% w/v Eye Drops, however, are individual doses rather than a single bottle of medicine. 

Murine Irritation & Redness Relief Eye Drops have naphazoline hydrochloride as the active ingredient, which acts as a vaso-constrictor and reduces blood flow to the affected area to alleviate irritation.
