Uses for ocriplasmin

Ocriplasmin is only administered by or under the supervision of your doctor.

Before using ocriplasmin

In deciding to use a medicine, the risks of taking the medicine must be weighed against the good it will do. This is a decision you and your doctor will make. For ocriplasmin, the following should be considered:

Allergies

Tell your doctor if you have ever had any unusual or allergic reaction to ocriplasmin or any other medicines. Also tell your health care professional if you have any other types of allergies, such as to foods, dyes, preservatives, or animals. For non-prescription products, read the label or package ingredients carefully.

Pediatric

Appropriate studies have not been performed on the relationship of age to the effects of ocriplasmin injection in the pediatric population. Safety and efficacy have not been established.

Interactions with medicines

Although certain medicines should not be used together at all, in other cases two different medicines may be used together even if an interaction might occur. In these cases, your doctor may want to change the dose, or other precautions may be necessary. Tell your healthcare professional if you are taking any other prescription or nonprescription (over-the-counter [OTC]) medicine.

Interactions with food/tobacco/alcohol

Certain medicines should not be used at or around the time of eating food or eating certain types of food since interactions may occur. Using alcohol or tobacco with certain medicines may also cause interactions to occur. Discuss with your healthcare professional the use of your medicine with food, alcohol, or tobacco.

Other medical problems

The presence of other medical problems may affect the use of ocriplasmin. Make sure you tell your doctor if you have any other medical problems, especially:

  • Detached retina (eye disorder) or
  • Dyschromatopsia (color vision disorder) or
  • Eye infection or
  • Glaucoma (increased pressure in the eye) or
  • Lens subluxation (partial dislocation of the eye lens)—Use with caution. May make these conditions worse.

Proper use of ocriplasmin

An eye doctor will give you ocriplasmin as a shot into the eye.

Precautions while using ocriplasmin

Your eye doctor will want to check your progress at regular visits, especially during the first few days after you receive ocriplasmin.

Serious eye problems may occur with ocriplasmin. Check with your eye doctor right away if your eye becomes red, sensitive to light, or painful, or if you have a change in vision, or feel increased pressure in the eye several days after the injection.

Ocriplasmin may cause temporary blurred vision. Avoid driving, using machines, or doing anything else that could be dangerous if you are not able to see well. If this symptom persists, have your eyes checked by an eye doctor.
