What is Alamast used for?
Alamast is used to prevent itching of the eye caused by allergies.
Alamast should not be used to treat contact lens-related problems.
You may notice decreased itching within a few days, but frequently
longer treatment (up to four weeks) is necessary.
General Precautions with Alamast?
- Do not wear contact lenses if your eyes
are red.
- If you wear soft contact lenses and your eyes are
not red, remove the lenses before using Alamast. Wait at
least 10 minutes after using Alamast before putting in your
contact lenses, because Alamast contains a preservative
that may be absorbed by the lens.
- Do not allow the tip of the dropper to touch the
eyelids or surrounding areas, because this may contaminate
the medicine.
- Wait at least 10 minutes after using Alamast before
putting in your contact lenses.
- Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use.
What should I tell my doctor or health care provider?
Tell your health care provider if you are
trying to become pregnant, are already pregnant, or are breast-feeding.
