What is it and what is it for?
STILLERGY is an antiallergic decongestant medicine for the eye. It is used to treat symptoms caused by irritation and congestion of the conjunctiva, the inner lining of the eye.


What you need to know before taking the medicine
Do not take STILLERGY eye drops
- if you are allergic to the active substances or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6);
- if you suffer from closed-angle glaucoma;
- do not give STILLERGY eye drops to children under 3 years of age due to the presence of boric acid.


Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using STILLERGY eye drops.
Do not mix with other medicines, so do not instill at the same time as other eye drops.
If you suffer from glaucoma, other eye diseases, or have damage due to mechanical, chemical or physical agents (heat), or, in any case, have symptoms other than simple redness of the eye (such as discharge/tearing of the eye or sensation of a foreign body) you must use the medicine only with a medical prescription.
The passage of medications administered into the eye into the bloodstream varies greatly. There is a possibility that enough of the drug may be absorbed to cause side effects in the organs or interactions with other medications. Therefore, if you suffer from thyroid disease, heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, or are taking medications known as MAOIs (monoamine oxidase inhibitors used to treat depression), you should use the medicine only after consulting your doctor.
If you use the medicine at higher doses and for longer periods than recommended, you may have an increased risk of side effects.
If you experience eye pain or changes in vision during treatment, or if your symptoms worsen or persist for more than 3 days, you should stop using the eye drops and consult your doctor. Excessive use of decongestant medications (which narrow peripheral blood vessels) can cause increased eye redness.
If you wear contact lenses, you can use the medicine only after consulting your doctor.
Contact lenses (especially soft ones) should not be worn during treatment with medications administered directly into the eye. Possible side effects are less frequent when using preservative-free, single-dose eye drops. This medicine contains an antihistamine (anti-allergy) that can reduce eye blinking and tear production.

Children
The medicine contains boric acid, therefore it should not be administered to children under 3 years of age.


Possible side effects
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
The most commonly reported side effects are: blurred vision, irritation of the conjunctiva (the inner lining of the eye), burning sensation in the eye, and dilated pupils (mydriasis). Occasionally: nausea, headache, increased blood pressure, weakness, sweating, dizziness, abnormal heartbeat, tremors, insomnia, and increased pressure within the eye.
