Qlosi eye drops price reference

As of now, it has not been officially launched for sale in the Chinese mainland market. Therefore, domestic hospitals and pharmacies cannot purchase it directly.

According to overseas reference prices, the price of Qlosi eye drops is relatively high. The reference price of 0.4mL*30 pieces/box is about US$1,500. The price reflects its price level in the legal market of the country of origin, and will fluctuate due to factors such as pharmacies, insurance coverage, etc.

The price is only for information reference and does not represent its final pricing in the future Chinese market. It is not a purchase recommendation and is not used for domestic sales.

The pictures come from public channels (such as the official website of the FDA, the official website of the original drug manufacturer, etc.) and are for reference only.

Factors affecting the price of Qlosi eye drops

1. R&D and innovation costs

The price of Qlosi eye drops, as a new low-concentration pilocarpine formula, went through lengthy preclinical research and large-scale clinical trials before it was launched. These processes cost a huge amount of money, and high R&D costs are one of the core reasons for the high pricing of innovative drugs.

2. Production process and packaging

Qlosi eye drops are priced in single-dose, preservative-free packaging. This packaging form can minimize the risk of irritation and allergy to the ocular surface, and is especially suitable for patients with long-term or sensitive eyes. However, its production process and requirements are higher than multi-dose bottles, which increases production costs.

3. Market positioning and patent protection

As the first drug specifically approved by the FDA for the treatment of presbyopia in recent years, the price of Qlosi eye drops has a certain degree of exclusivity in the market. During the patent protection period, pharmaceutical companies usually adopt higher pricing to recover investment and obtain profits.

How to use Qlosi eye drops

1. Dosage and frequency

(1). Conventional dosage: 1 drop per eye each time.

(2) Daily frequency: Use up to 2 times a day. The second eye drop should be separated by 2 to 3 hours from the first to achieve up to 8 hours of near vision improvement.

(3) Usage mode: Can be used daily as needed, or only used when near vision needs to be improved.

2. Detailed usage steps

(1). Preparation: Wash hands thoroughly before use. Remove a single-dose vial from the foil pouch.

(2) Attention for those who wear contact lenses: Contact lenses should be removed before applying the medicine. After applying the medicine, wait at least 10 minutes before wearing it again.

(3) Eye drops: tilt the head back and look up. Use your fingers to gently pull the lower eyelid downward to create a small sac. Suspend the vial above the eye, squeeze gently, and drop 1 drop into the inner eyelid sac. Special Note: Never let the tip of the bottle come into contact with your eyes, eyelashes, or any surface to prevent contamination.

(4) Close your eyes: Gently close your eyes for 1-2 minutes and avoid blinking or squinting. You can gently press the inner corners of the eyes (at the nasolacrimal duct) with your fingers to reduce systemic absorption of the drug.

(5) Discard: Single-dose vials are single-use and should be discarded immediately after use, even if there is remaining medicinal solution inside.

3. Combined use of medications

If other eye drops are used at the same time, there should be at least a 5-minute interval between drops of different medications.
