Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects although not everybody gets them. Eyes become redder or more painful whilst using the drops. This may be a result of inflammation on the eye surface with or without loss or damage of cells or an inflammation of the colored part of the eye (iritis)

Tell your doctor if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines especially: Other eye drops for the treatment of glaucoma Medicines that reduce blood clotting (warfarin) or other NSAIDs since these may increase the risk of bleeding
