4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use

OLOPATADINE S.K is an antiallergic/antihistaminic agent and, although administered topically, is absorbed systemically. If signs of serious reactions or hypersensitivity occur, discontinue the use of this treatment.
OLOPATADINE S.K contains benzalkonium chloride which may cause eye irritation.
Benzalkonium chloride has also been reported to cause punctate keratopathy and/or toxic ulcerative keratopathy. Close monitoring is required with frequent or prolonged use in dry eye patients, or in conditions where the cornea is compromised.
Contact lenses
Benzalkonium is known to discolour soft contact lenses. Avoid contact with soft contact lenses. Patients should be instructed to remove contact lenses prior to administration of the eye drop and wait at least15 minutes after instillation before re-inserting contact lenses.

Effects on Driving

4.7 Effects on ability to drive and use machines

OLOPATADINE S.K has no or negligible influence on the ability to drive and use machines.
As with any eye drop, temporary blurred vision or other visual disturbances may affect the ability to drive or use machines. If blurred vision occurs at instillation, the patient must wait until the vision clears before driving or using machinery.
