What is Ketotifen Hydrogen Fumarate?
Ketotifen Hydrogen Fumarate, the active ingredient in Ketazed, is an antihistamine presented as an ophthalmic solution for ocular use. It is employed to relieve symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis, ocular itching and redness caused by allergic eye disease.
GNH USA supplies Ketazed as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide.
What is Ketotifen Hydrogen Fumarate used for?
Ketazed is an antihistamine eye drop that targets allergic inflammation of the ocular surface.
Allergic conjunctivitis: reduces redness, swelling and itching caused by seasonal or perennial allergens. Ocular itching: provides rapid relief of itchiness associated with eye allergies. Redness due to allergic eye disease: diminishes hyperemia and discomfort in affected eyes.
What are the side effects of Ketotifen Hydrogen Fumarate?
Ketazed may cause ocular and systemic reactions, most of which are mild and transient.
Common Side Effects: - Burning or stinging sensation upon instillation. - Temporary blurred vision. - Mild eye irritation or foreign‑body sensation. - Slight increase in tear production. - Mild conjunctival hyperemia.
Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Severe allergic reaction (e.g., angio‑edema of the eyelid). - Persistent eye pain or swelling. - Vision loss or sudden decrease in visual acuity. - Corneal ulceration or keratitis. - Persistent intra‑ocular pressure elevation.
What precautions apply to Ketotifen Hydrogen Fumarate?
Before using Ketazed, consider the following safety measures.
Hypersensitivity: discontinue if known allergy to ketotifen or any excipient. Contact lens wearers: remove lenses before instillation and wait several minutes before reinserting. Concurrent ocular steroids: monitor for masked infections. Pregnancy and lactation: consult a healthcare professional before use. Children: keep out of reach and use only as directed. Store at room temperature: keep in original container, protect from light and moisture.
What does Ketotifen Hydrogen Fumarate interact with?
Ketazed may interact with other ocular or systemic agents.
Major Interactions (Avoid): - Concurrent use with other mast‑cell stabilizers may increase ocular irritation. - Combination with preservative‑containing contact lens solutions can exacerbate burning. - Simultaneous administration of ocular corticosteroids may mask signs of infection.
