About NEPASTAR EYE DROPS 5 ML
- NEPASTAR EYE DROPS 5 ML is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used in ophthalmology. It is primarily prescribed as eye drops to reduce inflammation and pain following cataract surgery or other ocular surgeries. NEPASTAR EYE DROPS 5 ML belongs to the class of NSAIDs known as prodrugs, which are converted into their active form within the eye. Once activated, it inhibits the production of inflammatory mediators, such as prostaglandins, thereby alleviating inflammation and providing relief. NEPASTAR EYE DROPS 5 ML is typically well-tolerated and offers a convenient and effective option for post-operative eye care.

How NEPASTAR EYE DROPS 5 ML Works
- NEPASTAR EYE DROPS 5 ML works by inhibiting the production of inflammatory mediators in the eye, providing relief from post-operative inflammation and pain.
- NEPASTAR EYE DROPS 5 ML exerts its pharmacological effects by being converted into its active form, amfenac, within the eye. Once activated, amfenac inhibits the activity of cyclooxygenase enzymes, specifically COX-1 and COX-2, which are responsible for the production of prostaglandins, potent mediators of inflammation and pain. By reducing the levels of prostaglandins in the eye, NEPASTAR EYE DROPS 5 ML helps alleviate ocular inflammation and pain following cataract surgery or other ocular surgeries. This anti-inflammatory action promotes healing, improves patient comfort, and supports visual recovery. NEPASTAR EYE DROPS 5 ML is unique in its prodrug nature, allowing for targeted therapeutic effects within the eye while minimizing systemic exposure and associated side effects.
