Benefits of Flur Ophthalmic Solution

In Treatment of Eye pain

Flur Ophthalmic Solution effectively relieves pain, swelling and redness in the eyes. It also adds moisture to your eyes and keeps them lubricated.

How to use Flur Ophthalmic Solution

This medicine is for external use only. Take it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Hold the dropper close to the eye without touching it. Gently squeeze the dropper and place the medicine inside the lower eyelid. Wipe off extra liquid.

How Flur Ophthalmic Solution works

Flur Ophthalmic Solution is a combination of two medicines: flurbiprofen, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and phenyl mercuric nitrate. Flurbiprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose is a lubricating formulation similar to natural tears. It provides temporary relief of burning and discomfort due to dryness of the eye.
