Nep TS 0.3% Ophthalmic Suspension contains Nepafenac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used in ophthalmology. It is indicated for adults to relieve post-operative eye pain and inflammation following cataract surgery. It is also used to reduce the risk of cystoid macular edema (CME), a swelling in the retina, particularly in diabetic patients after cataract surgery.
Nep TS 0.3% is for ocular use only and should be used strictly as directed by a physician for optimal results. Patients are generally advised to avoid wearing contact lenses after cataract surgery until cleared by their doctor.
