Contents of the pack and other
information
1. WHAT ATROPINE EYE DROPS
ARE AND WHAT THEY ARE USED
FOR
Atropine Eye Drops contain atropine
sulfate which belongs to groups of
medicines called mydriatics (medicines
that widen the pupil) and cycloplegics
(medicines used to relax the muscles
which enable the eyes to focus).
Atropine Eye Drops are used to treat
inflammation in the eye (uveitis or iritis)
and before certain eye examinations.
This medicine is also used to diagnose
eye problems such as blurred vision
(refraction) in children below 6 years
and children with cross-eyes or squint
(convergent strabismus).
2. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
BEFORE YOU USE ATROPINE EYE
DROPS
DO NOT USE ATROPINE EYE DROPS IF:
• you are allergic to atropine sulfate or
to any of the other ingredients of this
medicine (listed in section 6).
• you suffer from increased pressure in
the eye (closed angle or narrow angle
glaucoma).
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR OR PHARMACIST
BEFORE USING ATROPINE EYE DROPS IF:
• you normally wear contact lenses.
Soft contact lenses must not be
worn whilst using this medicine (see
Important information about one of
the ingredients)
• you are pregnant, trying to become
pregnant or you are breast-feeding
• you have a high temperature (fever)
• you have dark coloured eyes, as it is
more difficult to widen the pupils.
(Care should be taken to avoid using
more eye drops than you should).
• you suffer from any heart problems
such as faster heart beat (tachycardia).
If the weather is very warm consult
your doctor or pharmacist before using
Atropine Eye Drops
EYE TESTS
Your doctor may want to check your
eyes before and during your therapy
particularly if you have had any eye
disorders. If you have not had your eyes
checked recently, tell your doctor.
