Drug introduction

NAPHCON A (or equivalent) is a medicine used to treat redness and itching of the eyes. It contains occlofenine hydrochloride and phenolaniline hydrochloride, two ingredients that can relieve eye discomfort caused by allergies or other irritations. NAPHCON A narrows blood vessels and reduces symptoms of eye redness and itching, providing relief and comfort. Before use, please clean your hands, then gently open the lower eyelids and instill 1-2 drops of medicine into the eyes. Gently press the eye for a few minutes after use to ensure even distribution of the medication. Follow your doctor's or pharmacist's advice when using this product and avoid contact with the surface of your eyes. If discomfort persists, stop use immediately and seek medical advice. Store in a cool, dry place away from children.

Dosage

Directions for use: Shake bottle well before each use. Adults and children should use 1 to 2 drops 2 to 3 times daily, increasing to 4 to 6 drops as needed. When using, gently pull down the lower eyelid, drip into the eyes, then close the eyes and gently press the corners of the eyes for about 1 minute to promote even distribution of the medicine. If you have contact lenses, please remove them and wait 15 minutes after use before putting them back on.

Dosage Guidelines: The starting dose for adults and children is 1 to 2 drops 2 to 3 times daily. If the dose needs to be increased, it can be gradually adjusted to 4 to 6 drops each time, but the total dose should not exceed 12 drops per day. For younger children, it is recommended to consult a doctor to determine the appropriate dosage.
