What are FML drops used for? 

With the generic name fluorometholone, FML is an ophthalmic solution indicated to treat eye swelling, irritation, or redness due to inflammation or injury. It treats inflammation of the cornea, palpebral and bulbar conjunctivae, and anterior segment of the globe caused by corticosteroids. 

This is available in FML drops 0.1% ophthalmic solution. 

How does FML work? 

This ocular corticosteroid operates by inducing lipocortins, which are phospholipase A2 inhibitory proteins. Lipocortins are assumed to control the biosynthesis of potent mediators of inflammation like leukotrienes and prostaglandins through the inhibition of the release of arachidonic acid. This long-chain fatty acid is being released from membrane phospholipid by phospholipase A2. 

How to use FML 

To initiate, read the FML eyedrop information leaflet that comes with this eye product. Do not use any ophthalmic medication without fully understanding the drug information and instructions written in the guide. If you need more medical advice on your condition or have inquiries on using these eye drops, you can ask your doctor or pharmacist. 

Remember to use this drug regularly and exactly as prescribed to get the best benefit. To avoid skipping doses, create a dosage regimen. If you are prescribed another type of eye medication, note that there should be a five to ten-minute interval, and eye drops should be administered before eye ointments to allow proper absorption. 

Do not alter your FML drops dosage as it is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Also, keep using this eye drop for as long as prescribed. To avoid worsening problems, do not discontinue this medicine abruptly. 

Step by step guide in using FML drops: 

  1. Wash your hands before you administer an ophthalmic medication. If you are using a pair of contact lenses, remove them before putting the eye drops and wear them again 15 minutes after the drops have been administered. 
  2. Shake the bottle well. 
  3. Slightly tilt your head back, look up, and gently pull down the lower eyelid. 
  4. Hold the tip of the dropper above your eye and press the bottle to release one drop.  
  5. Look down and close your eyes for a few moments. To keep the medicine from draining, place your finger in the inner corner of your eye. Avoid blinking or touching your eyes.
