Acuvail 0.45% Ophthalmic Solution (0.4 ml Unit-Dose)

Acuvail is a premium, preservative-free ophthalmic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) containing Ketorolac Tromethamine (0.45%). Specifically engineered for the clinical management of ocular inflammation and pain, Acuvail works by inhibiting the cyclooxygenase (COX-1 and COX-2) enzymes. This targeted biochemical action reduces the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are the primary mediators of pain and swelling in the eye. Commonly prescribed following cataract surgery, Acuvail provides a decisive therapeutic response to ensure post-operative comfort and accelerate the recovery of clear vision. By modulating the body’s inflammatory response, it serves as a sophisticated, pharmaceutical-grade solution for maintaining ocular health during the critical healing phase.

Packaged in single-use vials to eliminate the risk of preservative-induced corneal irritation.
Specifically indicated for the treatment of inflammation following cataract extraction.
Contains advanced polymers to keep the medication on the eye for longer-lasting efficacy.
Each 0.4 ml vial ensures maximum purity and prevents cross-contamination between uses.

Precautions

Use strictly under the guidance of an ophthalmologist or eye care specialist.
Each vial is intended for a single application. Discard the vial immediately after use, even if some solution remains.
Like all topical NSAIDs, Acuvail may slow the rate of corneal healing; monitor your progress as directed by your surgeon.
Inform your doctor if you have a known allergy to Aspirin or other NSAIDs (such as Ibuprofen or Naproxen).
Use with caution in patients with known bleeding tendencies or those taking anticoagulant medications.
Do not wear contact lenses during the immediate post-operative period or while using Acuvail unless specifically instructed by your doctor.

How to Use

Wash your hands thoroughly. Remove one 0.4 ml unit-dose vial from the foil pouch.
Twist off the tab to open the sterile vial. Do not let the tip touch any surface to avoid contamination.
Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and instill one drop into the affected eye(s).
Typically administered twice daily—once in the morning and once in the evening—starting one day prior to surgery and continuing through the first two weeks of recovery.
Close your eye for 1 minute and apply gentle pressure to the tear duct to keep the medication on the eye surface.
Throw away the vial immediately after instilling the drops. Never reuse an opened vial for a later dose.
