AND USES

is usually evident within a few days, but longer treatment for up to six weeks
is sometimes required. Once symptomatic improvement has been established, therapy
should be continued for as long as needed to sustain improvement. If required,
corticosteroids may be used concomitantly with OPTICROM®.
