General Information on Your Pataday Dose

Considerations for people taking Pataday include the following:

This medication comes in the form of an eyedrop. It is used in each eye just once a day.
It does not matter what time of day you use Pataday, but it is best to take it at the same time each day.
If you wear contact lenses, you must remove them to use the drops. In order to prevent the lens from absorbing some of the ingredients in the medication, be sure to wait at least 10 minutes after using the drops before reinserting the lens. Do not wear your contact lenses if your eye is still red.
In order to prevent contamination of the drops, do not touch the tip of the dropper to any surface, including the surface of the eye.
For Pataday to work properly, it must be taken as directed.
If you are unsure about anything related to your dosage of Pataday, please talk with your doctor, nurse, or pharmacist.
