Brief Answer:
Tone down medication

Detailed Answer:
My dear,
Thanks for sending your query to us.
Instead of stopping drops completely you can taper it off. Say make it twice a day for 3 days then once a day for 3 to 4 days. Then this can be used as and when required.
We prefer not to stop these drops abruptly. Any further query in this regard please do get back to me.
