How Acupat Ophthalmic Solution Eye Drops 5ml Works?
Acupat Eye Drops contain two active ingredients that work together to relieve symptoms of eye inflammation and allergies:
-
Olopatadine (1 mg): This antihistamine stabilizes mast cells and blocks the release of histamine, the chemical responsible for causing allergic reactions. By doing so, it helps reduce symptoms such as itching, redness, and irritation in the eyes.
-
Ketorolac (4 mg): As an NSAID, Ketorolac reduces inflammation and pain by inhibiting the production of inflammatory substances in the body. It provides relief from eye pain and inflammation, particularly after eye surgeries or during allergic flare-ups.
Together, these components work synergistically to relieve the discomfort and symptoms caused by allergic conjunctivitis and post-surgical eye inflammation.
