Description
Introduction
Lotemax Sterile Ophthalmic Suspension is a specially formulated eye drop that belongs to a class of drugs known as corticosteroids. Its active ingredient is loteprednol etabonate. It is designed for use in the eyes and comes as a smooth, easy-to-apply suspension. Some users may experience side effects like blurred vision, mild eye discomfort, dry eyes, or watery eyes.
