PROACTIVE MANAGEMENT MAY HELP WITH POTENTIAL OCULAR ADVERSE REACTIONS1,2
Work with an eye care provider (optometrist or ophthalmologist)1
- Prior to treatment initiation, patients should receive a baseline ophthalmic exam, including a visual acuity and slit lamp exam
- Patients should have follow-up exams during every other cycle for the first 8 cycles and as clinically indicated
Schedule for eye drops1
- The use of ophthalmic topical steroids and preservative-free lubricating eye drops* is recommended
- The initial prescription and renewals of any corticosteroid medication should be made only after a slit lamp exam
*Preservative-free eye drops are not a requirement for all patients. Lubricating eye drops without preservatives are recommended for patients with sensitive eyes.3,4
- Tell your patients to avoid the use of contact lenses during treatment with ELAHERE unless directed by a healthcare professional1
