Does Taking Fedac Tablets Cause Red And Swollen Eyes?

Hi, I was wondering if by taking fedac tablets, just for two nights, would that have been the cause for my eyes to have become red and swollen? I distinctly remember telling the doctor who attended to my flu symptoms that I should not be given any steroids as my eye specialist had informed me that my usage of the rhinochort spray with steroids has caused me to have Glaucoma.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having flu and you are taking fudac tablet. Fudac tablet is a decongestant drug and it is used for treatment of cold and congestion.
Fudac tablet is not known to cause redness or swelling of the eyes. The probable cause for redness and swelling of the eyes is inflammation of conjunctiva secondary to flu. The treatment of the condition is by using antibiotic eye drops and treatment of flu by antibiotic drugs and decongestant drugs.

Thank you
