Suggest Treatment For Itching And Pain In Eye Caused By Conjunctivitis
Question: My husband was DX with pink eye. He was given polymyxin b sulfate and trimethoprim drops. His eye is still itching like crazy. Can he have lastacaft too? Or anything else to relieve the itch?
Brief Answer:
Considerations
Detailed Answer:
hello and thanks for sending the question.
It sounds like he has some significant inflammation going on or possibly some type of allergic issue. Lastacraft May provide some relief. I will talk about this with the doctor again. Sometimes topical steroid medications such as Prednisolone drops can be quite helpful as well.
Again I think the antihistamine might provide some relief but I will talk about it with the doctor first.
