The medication is administered as eye drops, usually once daily, as directed by a doctor. It is important for patients to follow the usage instructions to achieve maximum efficacy.

Patients should be aware of potential side effects, such as eye irritation, redness, or changes in iris pigmentation. It is important to inform the doctor of any unusual symptoms.

Common side effects include eye irritation, a burning or itching sensation, and gradual changes in iris color. In rare cases, allergic reactions or ocular inflammation may occur. Patients should be informed of these risks before starting treatment.
