Optrex Allergy Eye Drops can be used to prevent, treat and soothe red, watery, puffy and itchy eyes caused by hay fever or allergies such as house mites and pet hairs.

The active ingredient, Sodium Cromoglicate, works by stopping the body from releasing histamine, the natural allergic response chemical that causes the reaction.

Active Ingredient: Sodium Cromoglicate (2.0% w/v).

Other Ingredients: Benzalkonium chloride, disodium edetate and purified water.

Use one or two drops in each eye four times a day, or as directed by your doctor.
