Nepafenac is used in post-operative eye pain and inflammation.

Nepafenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by stopping the release of certain natural substances in the eye that are responsible for pain and inflammation (redness and swelling).

• Your doctor has prescribed Nepafenac for the relief of post-operative eye pain and inflammation (redness and swelling).
• Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute, immediately after instilling the drop.
• Usually, a 4 to 6-week course may be necessary.
• Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution.
• Stinging sensation may occur for 1-2 mins. Notify your doctor if it persists for longer.
• Notify your doctor if you are on blood thinners or have bleeding problems.
• Use the eye drops within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
