Sterile eye drops, 10 mL

What is Makulin® Dual Action?

Makulin Dual Action is a medical device forophthalmic use

What is Makulin® Dual Action?

It reduces irritation, provides antioxidant, hydration and lubrication effect and therefore reduces discomforts. 

 

It protects the ocular surface by supporting physiological and integrative antioxidant mechanisms and increasing  the aqueous component of the tear film with final maintenance effect or re-establishing normal physiological condition of the ocular mucosa. 

 

The package contains a 10 mL bottle. 

When and who is it intended for?

For seasonal allergic conjunctivitis, dry eye syndrome and ocular discomforts.

When and who is it intended for?

In patients with:

  • Seasonal allergic conjunctivitis
  • Dry eye syndrome 
  • Ocular discomforts

In patients with:

  • Seasonal allergic conjunctivitis
  • Dry eye syndrome 
  • Ocular discomforts caused by environmental impact ( dust, air condition)  
  • mechanical stress ( ineffective eye blinking due to long-term computer use or long-term driving, learning, contact lens wearing)
  • elderly, women in menopause 
  • nutritional deficiencies such as low or insufficient vitamin intake.

Application instructions

Turn the bottle upside down and slightly press in order to put 2 drops in every eye, unless otherwise prescribed.

Application instructions

Wash your hands properly.

 

Tear off the stamp which cannot be opened without visible damage before the first application.

 

Remove the  protective cap and open the bottle. 

Turn the bottle upside down and slightly press in order to put 2 drops in every eye, unless otherwise prescribed.

 

Gradual bottle emptying can be associated with a need for higher pressure exercised in order to allow the product release. This is due to the closing system which maintains sterile solution and its chemical and physical properties without preservative agents. 

 

Close the bottle with the cap immediately after the application.

 

The solution is to be used for a period of 3 months after the first application.  

COMPOSITION

Sodium hyaluronate, rosmarinic acid, allantoin, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, vegetable glycerol, vitamin B12, sodium dihydrogen phosphate monoydrate, sodium hydrogen phosphate dodecahydrate, sodium chloride, water for injection.

Rosmarinic acid

It is a polyphenol with excellent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties which are very useful in treating allergic reactions. They work to block free radicals and therefore protect ocular tissue from continuous exposure to oxidative stress.

Allantoin

It reduces irritation, provides protection by creating complexes with allergen substances and increases extracellular fluid volume. Owing to moisturizing effect, allantoin contributes to tissue repair and stimulates cell proliferation as a physiological response to injury at the same time.

Vitamin B12

It is an essential nutrient which cannot be synthesized by the human body. It has antioxidant properties against free radicals and helps creating appropriate extracellular microenvironment of the ocular surface for normal growth and repair of ocular epithelium.

Hyaluronic acid

Hyaluronic acid is a polysaccharide with a great biocompatibility, naturally occurring in all tissues. Due to its viscoelasticity and hydration capacity, hyaluronic acid contributes to better drop lubrication allowing easier eyelid closing and reducing friction between the corneal surface and conjunctiva, which reduces dry eye sensation.

Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose

It is a biocompatible polymer used for condensation (the main structure built of cellulose, natural carbohydrate containing repeated glucose units) which increases drop viscosity maintaining thus the formulation in the eye, preventing their rapid removal when blinking.

Glycerol

Natural component used in eye drop formulations as a moisturizing agent, because it reduces tear evaporation and therefore hydrates the cornea.
