Frequently asked questions

What is Melet used for?+
Melet is an over‑the‑counter eye‑drop formulation that combines pheniramine maleate and tetryzoline hydrochloride to relieve symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis, such as itching, redness, and swelling of the conjunctiva.
How does pheniramine maleate work in Melet?+
Pheniramine maleate acts as an H1‑receptor antagonist, blocking histamine binding in ocular tissues. This reduces histamine‑mediated itching, vasodilation, and inflammatory fluid leakage, providing rapid symptom relief.
What is the usual dose of Melet?+
The appropriate dosing regimen for Melet is determined by the prescribing healthcare professional. Typically, one to two drops are instilled in the affected eye(s) as directed, not exceeding the recommended treatment duration.
Is Melet safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety data for pheniramine maleate and tetryzoline hydrochloride in pregnancy and lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding should consult their physician before using Melet.
How do I order Melet from GNH USA?+
To order Melet, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com with the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.
How does Melet compare with other ocular antihistamines?+
Melet combines an antihistamine (pheniramine) with a vasoconstrictor (tetryzoline), offering both itch relief and rapid reduction of redness. Single‑agent antihistamine drops relieve itching but may not address hyperemia as quickly, while pure vasoconstrictors lack the antihistamine component for itch control.
What are the storage requirements for Melet?+
Store Melet at room temperature, below 25 °C, in the original packaging. Keep the bottle tightly closed, protect it from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain product stability.
How is Melet administered?+
Melet is applied topically as eye drops. The patient should wash hands, tilt the head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the conjunctival sac. Close the eye gently and avoid blinking excessively.
What are the most serious risks associated with Melet?+
Serious risks include severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis), significant rise in intra‑ocular pressure, prolonged vasoconstriction leading to ocular ischemia, and corneal ulceration. Any sudden vision changes or intense eye pain should prompt immediate medical attention.
Who should not use Melet?+
Melet should not be used by individuals with known hypersensitivity to pheniramine, tetryzoline, or any formulation excipients, and it is contraindicated in patients with narrow‑angle glaucoma or recent ocular surgery unless directed by an eye specialist.
