RESTASIS ophthalmic emulsion is indicated to increase tear production in patients whose tear production is presumed to be suppressed due to ocular inflammation associated with keratoconjunctivitis sicca. Increased tear production was not seen in patients currently taking topical anti-inflammatory drugs or using punctal plugs.
Invert the unit dose vial a few times to obtain a uniform, white, opaque emulsion before using. Instill one drop of RESTASIS ophthalmic emulsion twice a day in each eye approximately 12 hours apart. RESTASIS can be used concomitantly with lubricant eye drops, allowing a 15-minute interval between products. Discard vial immediately after use.
