Senile cataract treatment eye drops are a drug used to treat early-stage senile cataracts. Its main ingredient is pirenoxine sodium, which has antioxidant and anti-protein denaturation effects. This article will introduce this drug in detail from three aspects: new purchase method, price and contraindications to help patients better understand and use it.

A new way to purchase senile cataract treatment eye drops

With the advancement of medical technology and the development of the Internet, the ways to purchase senile cataract treatment eye drops have become more diverse and convenient, and patients can choose the appropriate purchasing channel according to their own needs.

Online purchasing channels

Many formal pharmaceutical e-commerce platforms provide sales services for elderly cataract treatment eye drops. Patients can place orders directly through the platform, and the medicines will be delivered to their homes by express delivery. When purchasing, be sure to choose a qualified platform and check the manufacturer and expiration date of the drug.

Purchasing in offline pharmacies

Offline pharmacies are still one of the main channels for purchasing eye drops for elderly cataract treatment. Patients can go to large chain pharmacies or hospital pharmacies to purchase them. Pharmacists will provide professional medication guidance, and they need to bring a doctor's prescription when purchasing.

Purchasing drugs overseas

For original drugs, some patients may choose to purchase drugs overseas. This method requires careful selection of channels to avoid buying fake and shoddy products. At the same time, you also need to understand the relevant customs policies to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by drug import restrictions.

No matter which purchase method is chosen, patients should ensure that the medicine comes from a regular source and read the instructions carefully or consult a doctor before use.

The price of senile cataract treatment eye drops

The price of senile cataract treatment eye drops varies depending on the brand, specification and purchase channel. Understanding the price information can help patients make more economical choices.

Original drug price

The original drug is produced by Santen Pharmaceuticals of Japan. The specification is 5mL×10/box and the price is about US$17 per box. The quality of original research drugs is guaranteed, but the price is relatively high.

Price of generic drugs

There are also generic drugs produced by many companies on the market, and the prices are usually lower than those of original drugs. Generic drugs are similar to original drugs in terms of ingredients and efficacy, but patients still need to choose products produced by regular manufacturers when purchasing.

Medical insurance and self-payment

Currently, eye drops for senile cataract treatment have not yet been included in China’s medical insurance, and patients need to purchase them at their own expense. The medical insurance policies in some areas may provide certain subsidies for specific groups of people. Patients can consult the local medical insurance department.

Price is an important reference factor for patients when choosing drugs, but the quality and safety of drugs should be given priority.

Contraindications of senile cataract treatment eye drops

Although senile cataract treatment eye drops are effective, they are not suitable for all people. Knowing its contraindications can help you avoid medication risks.

Restrictions for special groups

The safety of use by pregnant women, lactating women and children has not yet been determined. These groups should use the drug with caution under the guidance of a doctor. The elderly can use it at regular doses, but need to closely observe drug reactions.

Interactions with other drugs

There is currently no clear interaction between senile cataract treatment eye drops and other drugs. If you need to use other eye drops at the same time, it is recommended to wait at least 5 minutes to avoid possible drug conflicts.

Reading the instructions carefully before taking the medicine and following the doctor's instructions are the keys to reducing adverse reactions.
