WHAT CYSTADROPS IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
WHAT CYSTADROPS IS
Cystadrops is an eye drops solution that contains the active substance
cysteamine (also known as
mercaptamine).
WHAT IT IS USED FOR
It is used to reduce the quantity of cystine crystals in the surface
of the eye (cornea) in adults and
children from 2 years of age with cystinosis.
WHAT IS CYSTINOSIS
Cystinosis is a rare hereditary disease in which the body is unable to
remove excess cystine (an amino
acid), causing cystine crystals to accumulate in various organs (such
as kidney and eyes).
Accumulation of crystals in the eye can lead to increased sensitivity
to light (photophobia), corneal
deterioration (keratopathy) and loss of vision .
2.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU USE CYSTADROPS
DO NOT USE CYSTADROPS
If you are allergic to cysteamine or any of the other ingredients of
this medicine (listed in section 6).
WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Cystadrops.
OTHER MEDICINES AND CYSTADROPS
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are using, have recently used or
