Taurine Renewal, eye drops 4% 10 ml

A counteractant, has retinoprotective (when administered subconjunctivally) and metabolic effects. Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid formed in the body during cysteine metabolism.

It promotes normalization of cell membrane functions, activation of energy and metabolic processes, preservation of electrolyte composition of cytoplasm due to accumulation of potassium and calcium cations and improvement of nerve impulse conducting conditions.

Pharmacokinetics

In local administration systemic adsorption is low.

Indications

The drug is used as part of complex therapy. Corneal dystrophy; cataract (senile, diabetic, traumatic, radiation); corneal injury (as a stimulator of reparative processes). Primary open-angle glaucoma in combination with β-blockers (to improve the outflow of intraocular fluid).

Pharmacological effect

An anti-cataract agent, it has a retinoprotective (when administered subconjunctivally) and metabolic effect. Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid formed in the body during the metabolism of cysteine.

Helps normalize the functions of cell membranes, activate energy and metabolic processes, preserve the electrolyte composition of the cytoplasm due to the accumulation of potassium and calcium cations, and improve the conditions for nerve impulse conduction.

Pharmacokinetics

When applied topically, systemic adsorption is low.

Special instructions

The preservative contained in the drug may irritate the eye when wearing contact lenses, so any contact lenses should be removed before instillation and put on no earlier than 15 minutes after it. If it is necessary to simultaneously use other ophthalmic drugs (eye drops, etc.), the interval between the use of taurine and other drugs should be at least 10-15 minutes.

After opening, use within 14 days.

The ability to influence the speed of reactions when driving vehicles or working with other mechanisms
There is no data on the possibility of a negative effect of the drug on the performance of potentially hazardous activities that require special attention and quick reactions (driving a car and other vehicles, working as a dispatcher, etc.).

Active ingredient

Taurine

Composition

Per 1 ml:
Active substance:
Taurine – 40 g
Excipients:
methyl parahydroxybenzoate – 1 g
purified water – up to 1 l

Pregnancy

There is no sufficient experience with the use of the drug during pregnancy and breastfeeding. It is possible to use Taurine for the treatment of pregnant and nursing mothers as prescribed by the attending physician, if the expected therapeutic effect for the mother exceeds the risk of developing possible side effects for the fetus and child.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity, children’s age (up to 18 years).

Side Effects

Allergic reaction.

Interaction

The combined use of taurine with timolol is possible. There are no cases of negative drug interactions between taurine and other drugs used in ophthalmology.
In patients with primary open-angle glaucoma, an increase in the hypotensive effect of β-blockers (butylaminohydroxypropoxyphenoxymethyl methyloxadiazole or timolol maleate) was noted when combined with taurine.

Storage conditions

In a place protected from light, at a temperature of 12 to 15 C.

Shelf life
