About Lubitrex Eye Drop

Lubitrex Eye Drop belongs to the group of ophthalmic medications primarily used to treat dry eyes. Dry eye(s) is a condition in which the eye fails to make enough tears to coat it, which exposes the cornea and conjunctiva (outer coverings of the eye) to evaporation and subsequent damage.

Lubitrex Eye Drop contains Carboxymethylcellulose, an eye lubricant known as artificial tears. It works similarly to natural tears and provides temporary relief from burning and discomfort due to the eye's dryness by maintaining proper lubrication of the eyes and acting as a protectant against further irritation.

The most common side effects of Lubitrex Eye Drop are irritation, pain, and blurred vision. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor. 

Lubitrex Eye Drop is for ophthalmic use only. If you wear contact lenses or are wearing them, remove them before using Lubitrex Eye Drop, and you can put them back 15 minutes after using Lubitrex Eye Drop. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, allergic to this medicine, or taking any other medication. It is advised not to drive or operate heavy machinery after using this medicine as it may cause blurring of vision and affect your ability to drive.
