I seem to experience being irritated. Could be due to steroid use. Also I didn't realize you need to hold the eye shut for a couple of minutes to keep the medicine in as much as possible.

Very Soothing

Comment from: Goober, on Treatment for less than 1 month (Patient) Published: July 06

Prescribed after cataract surgery-get awful taste in mouth that can't get rid of! Even coffee tastes bad! Gives me a migraine like (not as bad) headache & nauseated from it..? Makes vision blurry. Even makes my 'other' eye hurt & feel swelled..? I don't like this medicine at all! There must be a better treatment...?

I just recently had Lasik done. This medication gave me a stuffy nose. Everytime I use it I cant breath out of my nose. I had to purchase nasal decongestion spray! I have to use the spray everytime I put the drops in my eyes. Also, after I drop the medication into each eye I can taste it in the back of my throat. It has a very bitter taste. Being able to taste the medicaton is very odd to me...I didnt know your eyes were connected to your throat?

Used to treat eye inflammation of unknown origin. I had this inflammation for several months and when I started this drug, it cleared the inflammation in one week.

The only thing that bothers me about this medication is the horrible taste it leaves in my mouth about 20 minutes after I use the drops. It was prescribed to me for GPC (giant papillary conjunctivitus) after using Lotemax, which did not cure the infection.

I had a severe reaction to Pred Forte. Swelling of face and throat. Choking, blurred vision, burning on way down. Was not told to hold corner of eye so it wouldn't go down throat.

I have had rebound side effects as I attempted to wean off of the drops. (Redness, tearing, discomfort.)

I was prescribed this after having PRK Lasik. I had terrible reactions to this medication, I felt depressed, high heart rate and major anxiety. I asked to be taken off of it right away!

This medication was prescribed to me after I had PRK (lasic) surgery. It took awhile for my vision to get better but it was due to the dosage. I went from 4 drops a day to one drop a day. The good thing about all of this is that I have severe allergies combines with sinus pain and pressure. Since I've been on these drops, I have not had any issues. I have actually been able to enjoy the nice weather without any discomforts at all. I will be talking to my doctor to see if I can stay on them longer to control my allergies.
