WHAT MURINE IRRITATION & REDNESS RELIEF IS AND WHAT IT
IS USED FOR
MURINE Irritation & Redness Relief is an eye drop solution. It is
used to clear redness and soothe eyes which have been irritated
by, for example, dusty atmospheres, wind, swimming, smoke, air
pollutants, or close work such as reading and computer use.
This medicine contains the active ingredient naphazoline
hydrochloride which belongs to the group of medicines called
local vasoconstrictors which act by narrowing the blood vessels in
the eye, thereby reducing redness and swelling.
MURINE Irritation & Redness Relief is fast acting and has a long
lasting action.
You must talk to a doctor if you do not feel better or if you feel
worse after 24 hours.
