TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT THE BENEFITS OF OMIDRIA ® IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION OMIDRIA ® (phenylephrine and ketorolac injection) 1% / 0.3% must be added to irrigation solution prior to intraocular use. OMIDRIA is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients. Systemic exposure of phenylephrine may cause elevations in blood pressure. Use OMIDRIA with caution in individuals who have previously exhibited sensitivities to acetylsalicylic acid, phenylacetic acid derivatives, and other non-steroidal anti-infl ammatories (NSAIDs), or have a past medical history of asthma. The most commonly reported adverse reactions at 2-24% are eye irritation, posterior capsule opacifi cation, increased intraocular pressure, and anterior chamber infl ammation. Use of OMIDRIA in children has not been established. You are encouraged to report suspected adverse reactions to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch, or call 1-800-FDA-1088. INDICATIONS AND USAGE OMIDRIA is added to ophthalmic irrigation solution used during cataract surgery or intraocular lens replacement and is indicated for maintaining pupil size by preventing intraoperative miosis and reducing postoperative ocular pain. * Randomized, double-masked trial using a 4-arm factorial design to show that OMIDRIA is superior to either agent alone. Post hoc analysis of pupil diameter < 6mm at any time during the procedure. 2 Reimbursement information is based on Omeros data on fi le.
