Zaditor (Ketotifen Fumarate) ophthalmic solution is used for the temporary prevention of itching of the eye caused by allergies. Zaditor should not be used to treat eye irritations related to contact lenses. Zaditor is available without prescription. Compared with other OTC allergy eye drops, Zaditor has the following advantages:
1. Zaditor lasts up to 12 hours with single dose
2. Zaditor provides triple modes of action: potent antihistamine action, mast cell stabilization and eosinophil inhibition
3. Zaditor is safe and effective for children as young as 3 years old
4. Zaditor contains no vasoconstrictor
General Precautions with Zaditor:
1. You should not wear contact lenses if your eyes are red.
2. If you wear soft contact lenses and your eyes are not red, remove the lenses before using Zaditor. Wait at least 10 minutes after using Zaditor before putting in your contact lenses, because Zaditor contains a preservative that may be absorbed by the lens.
Some possible side effects of Zaditor:
Redness
Headache
Runny nose
Temporary burning or stinging of the eye
