Vitadium is a specialized ophthalmic solution formulated to provide rapid and long-lasting relief from the symptoms of seasonal and perennial allergic conjunctivitis. It features a triple-action formula that combines an antihistamine to stop itching, a decongestant to remove redness, and a lubricant to soothe dry, irritated eyes. It is a go-to clinical choice for patients exposed to environmental irritants like dust, pollen, or smoke.

Vitadium 5ml is indicated for the temporary relief of eye discomfort. It is particularly effective for:
Allergic Conjunctivitis: Rapidly stopping the intense itching and "gritty" sensation caused by allergies.
Ocular Redness: Constricting the small blood vessels in the eye to clear up "bloodshot" eyes within minutes.
Watery Eyes: Reducing excessive tearing and discharge associated with hay fever or environmental sensitivities.
Environmental Irritation: Soothing eyes stressed by air conditioning, swimming pool chlorine, or prolonged computer use.
Narrow-Angle Glaucoma: Do not use Vitadium if you have or are at risk for narrow-angle glaucoma, as the decongestant can increase internal eye pressure. "Rebound" Redness: Do not use for more than 3 to 5 consecutive days. Overuse can cause the blood vessels to dilate even more once you stop, making the redness worse. Heart Conditions: Use with caution if you have high blood pressure or heart disease, as Naphazoline can occasionally affect systemic blood pressure if absorbed. Contact Lenses: Remove lenses before use; wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting.
The standard dose is one to two drops in the affected eye(s) 3 to 4 times daily.
Application Technique:
Wash your hands thoroughly.
Tilt your head back and gently pull down the lower eyelid.
Hold the dropper over the eye. Do not touch the tip to the eye, eyelashes, or any surface.
Squeeze one drop into the pocket.
Close your eye and press gently on the inner corner (near the nose) for 1 minute to minimize systemic absorption.
If using other eye medications, wait at least 10 minutes between applications.
The most common side effect is a mild, temporary stinging or burning sensation immediately after application. Some patients may notice slightly dilated pupils or increased sensitivity to light. If you experience severe eye pain, a sudden change in vision, or a rapid heartbeat, stop use immediately and consult our pharmacist.
Store in a cool, dry place below 30°C, away from direct sunlight. Discard the bottle 28 days (4 weeks) after opening to ensure the solution remains sterile. Keep the cap tightly closed when not in use. Keep out of reach of children.
Q: Can I use Vitadium for "Apollo"?
A: "Apollo" is a viral infection. While Vitadium will make the eye look less red and feel less itchy, it will not kill the virus. It is often used only to manage the discomfort while the virus clears.
Q: Why can't I use it for more than 5 days?
A: Your eye's blood vessels can become "addicted" to the decongestant. If used too long, the redness will return much faster and more severely once the drops wear off.
Q: Is it safe for children?
A: It is generally safe for children over 6 years old. For younger children, please consult our pharmacist for a more gentle pediatric formulation.
Q: Will it help with "Dry Eye"?
A: It provides temporary lubrication, but if your primary problem is dryness, a dedicated "Artificial Tears" drop (like Refresh or Visine Tears) is a better long-term choice.
