Common Questions and Answers about Patanol preservative

I bought a bottle of Patanol eye drops about a month and three weeks ago, I found the box a couple days ago and noticed on the box that it says discard thirty days after opening... The expiry date on the bottle says 01-2011.. Is this bad that I used the eye drops three weeks after it was suppose to be discarded? I only used three quaters of the bottle. I paid a little over fifty dollars for this little 5 mL bottle.... But what can you do....
I get stringy mucous in my eyes.My doctor gave me patanol but it only worked for 6 days.It has only .01 strenght.Would a stronger strenght relieve my eye symptoms?
The only change I have made in my life style is to take Patanol eye drops for allergy eyes. I have been using them once daily for 4 months. Could it be that this antihistamine can be causing this increase in my blood pressure? I am allergic to the drugs used for controling blood pressure and prior to this successfully lowered my pressure by exercise and diet.It is normal for me to have a reading of 130 over 80. I am 59 years old. I weigh 110 pounds. I am 5 foot 6 inches tall.
My doctor told me to use Patanol and Xiloial together. But she said İ should use one of them first, then apply the other. Cuz one of them is gel or whatever. But now i cant remember which one she said that İ should use first. Can you please help me?

Last night, after reading so much information here, I happened to remember I had a bottle of Patanol in the medicine cabinet and I used it. I may be guilty of wishful thinking but it seemed like my eye felt dramatically better.
I used the Patanol again this morning and so far so good.
thanks for commenting back they are really good now not bllodshot and a little runny and not to bad today
My eyes become itchy and watery. I have used patanol in the past but the eye Dr is now recommending patasol which is very expensive. I want to try Zyrtec d instead of Zyrtec which gives me some releif. Any other suggestions are appreciated.
Systane, Blink, Refresh, Soothe and something for allergies like Patanol or Pataday. If your allergy is bad enough to require a steroid then lotemax, or pred mild would be better choices.
When he was checking me, he diagnosed me with Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis and put me on patanol eye drops - he said I was allergic to the contacts I was wearing and said that the pain I felt on my left eye was because I had a foreign body in that eye and my left eye is more sensitive than before. I explained to him that my right eye was fine and he told me that my right eye actually hurts just the same but it's overshadowed by the pain in my left eye.
I have tried many preservative containing drops however they seem to cause a bad reaction. Would Hycosan preservative free drops be worth a try or do you have any other suggestions of drops i could try. They would have to be preservative free not vials and be a liquid not a gel.
My eyes constantly have redness in them, mostly the outsides & the left one is more red than the right. How do I get rid of the redness in my eyes (without powerful medication). I'm already using an anti-allergy drop (Zaditor) which doesn't help THAT much. I've used Patanol before too. How can I get rid of the redness?
Hi the eye drops l take for Glaucoma ( Azarga) have the preservative Benzalkonium Chloride 0.1 mg/ml in them, what if any are the side effect of this preservative and is it just an irritant or could over 5 years of daily use actually do harm to the eye or make eye pressure worse?
Tobramycin, Patanol, and Amox-clav. Every time he uses them his eyes sting and have been of very little help for him.
Also, after the first few days, he went raking out in his backyard for a couple hours. Could that have caused damage or an irritant to get in his eyes? What do you suggest he do?
He has been on an oral antihistimine (claritin) for many years and uses Patanol and theratears. He was told he could no longer wear contact lenses (that's fine) and hasn't since his diagnoses. There is little change to his GPC even after using a prescription eye drop with steroids and antibiotic. His opthamologist never asked if he used any face cleanser. He uses a 10% Benzoyl Peroxide wash, in addition to Clearasil pads.
Is there an overuse issue? I have been using only preservative free drops but every hour 2 to 3 drops per eye.
She said not to use more than 4-5 preservative drops a day, After that, switch to preservative free. Said it was fine to mix them (or alternate them) or just use preservative free drops if I am having a bad dry eye day. I use optive for both.
So I usually purchase Clear Eyes preservative free lubricating drops for dry eyes. This comes in a single bottle that has a filter on it that supposed to keep it free from contaminants. I go through one of these bottles in a month. I ran out last week and the store was currently out of stock. I went ahead and tried the Genteal Tears preservative free drops that come in individual vials (36 in the box). The instructions say one time use and then discard.
Doubtful you are allergic to systane (disapearing preservative or preservative free varieties) or refresh pm (preservative free.) Believe it or not sometimes the contact lens can make certain corneal problems actually "feel" better while they continue to get worse - the lens can act like a bandage over corneal irritations or scratches - while making eye very susceptible to infections or keratitis.
When my penis in her mouth with preservative I came. Then she removed the preservative and we separated. I never knew oral sex has risky in respect of HIV and other STD's before this event. I checked many Internet articles and I'm very confused and worried. So, what is my risk? Please help me!
It was initially thought to be allergies, but the Patanol did not help. Opthamologist then prescribed tobradex, which worked until I came off it. We then moved to longer tobradex usage that tapered over two weeks. Came back again once I came off. Then moved to oral antibiotic for one week and zylet - no results. Now oral antibiotic for two weeks - no results.
Preservatives do not damage the cornea, every drop that is multiuse has some sort of preservative in it.. The most common is BAK. So out of a hundred people that take preservative eye drops several times/day only one or two will be allergic to preservative. And in those it does not do serious or permanent damage to eye on cause it to be red or irriated till they are stopped.
Polyquad (polyquaternium-1) 0.001% w/v)) when administered starts redness and inflammation at the both coners of eye and swelling under the eye. So if you can suggest its alternative so that irritation can be controlled while treating the glaucoma.
I will also do the drops. I have a prescription for patanol eye drops that I use during the fall hayfever season. It is odd though my eyes are Never this bad during hayfever season!
