Important Safety Information

What is OXERVATE?

  • OXERVATE is a prescription eye drop solution used to treat a condition called neurotrophic keratitis.

Before you use OXERVATE, tell your doctor about all of your medical conditions, including if you:

  • have an infection in your eye. If you get an eye infection while using OXERVATE, talk to your doctor right away.
  • are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. It is not known if OXERVATE will harm your unborn baby.
  • are breastfeeding or plan to breastfeed. It is not known if OXERVATE passes into your breast milk. Talk to your doctor about the best way to feed your baby if you use OXERVATE.

How should I use OXERVATE?

  • Use 1 drop of OXERVATE in the affected eye or both eyes if needed, 6 times each day, about 2 hours apart starting in the morning. Continue your treatment for 8 weeks.
  • If you use any other eye drops, wait at least 15 minutes before or after using OXERVATE. This will help to avoid one eye drop diluting the other eye drop.
  • If you also use an eye ointment or gel or an eye drop that is thick, use OXERVATE first, and then wait at least 15 minutes before using the other eye ointment, gel, or drops.
  • If you wear contact lenses in your affected eye or both eyes remove them before using OXERVATE and wait 15 minutes after using OXERVATE before reinserting them.
  • Do not use other eye medicines without talking to your doctor.
  • Talk to your doctor first before you stop using OXERVATE.

What should I avoid while using OXERVATE?

  • Your vision may be blurred for a short time after using OXERVATE. If this happens, wait until your vision clears before you drive or use machines.

What are the possible side effects of OXERVATE?

  • The most common side effect of OXERVATE is eye pain, enlarged blood vessels in the white of the eyes, swelling of the eye, and increase of tears.

Tell your doctor if you have any side effects that bother you. These are not all the possible side effects of OXERVATE.
