Indications

Patanol is an ophthalmic allergy medication used to treat itching or watery eyes caused by allergies.

Olopatadine is a dual action antihistamine and mast cell stabilizer (MCS) that improves symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis such as itching, redness, chemosis, tearing, and lid swelling. Patanol offers this allergy relief by antagonizing histamine receptors which are major contributors to allergy symptoms while also inhibiting the degranulation of mast cells in your eyes.

These anti-allergy eye drops are found to be safe and have superior efficacy at reducing ocular allergy symptoms. Patanol provides effective relief thanks to its unique dual action profile.

The dose of Patanol that is prescribed will vary depending on the individual being treated. Follow all your doctor’s instructions and read packaging labels carefully to ensure the best results.

  • Thoroughly wash hands before application
  • Do not use Patanol while wearing soft contact lenses
  • Most adults apply one drop in each affected eye twice a day every 6 to 8 hours
  • To apply, tilt back your head and pull down your lower lid to create a small pocket
