Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Aquasurge Max. The medicine inside is the same — the brand name, manufacturer and price are what differ.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Composition of Aquasurge Max

Aquasurge Max contains Carboxymethylcellulose (1% w/v). It belongs to the Eye drops class of medicines.

Uses of Aquasurge Max

Dry eyes

Benefits of Aquasurge Max

In Eye infection
Aquasurge Max clears the bacteria causing a red, sticky, painful eye, so the discharge, grittiness and redness settle within days.
In Eye inflammation
Aquasurge Max calms inflammation inside or on the surface of the eye, relieving redness, pain and sensitivity to light.
In Dry eyes
Aquasurge Max lubricates the surface of the eye, relieving the gritty, burning, tired feeling of dry eyes, especially after screen use or in air-conditioning.
In Glaucoma
Aquasurge Max lowers the pressure inside the eye, which is what protects the optic nerve from the slow, painless damage glaucoma causes to sight.
In Allergic conjunctivitis
Aquasurge Max relieves the itching, watering and redness of an allergic eye, so you can stop rubbing and the eye can settle.

How Aquasurge Max works

Aquasurge Max Eye Drop is a lubricant. It works similarly to natural tears and provides temporary relief from burning and discomfort due to dryness of the eye.

How to take Aquasurge Max

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Hold the dropper close to the eye without touching it. Gently squeeze the dropper and place the medicine inside the lower eyelid. Wipe off the extra liquid.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of Aquasurge Max Eye Drop, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine is unlikely from eye use; flush the eye with clean water if too much is instilled. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Aquasurge Max

Most side effects of Aquasurge Max are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Stinging on instillation
  • Blurred vision for a few minutes
  • Watering
  • Redness
  • Bitter taste

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Warnings and precautions

Never let the dropper tip touch your eye, eyelid or fingers — that is how a bottle becomes contaminated and causes a worse infection. Discard the bottle one month after you first open it, even if drops remain. Remove soft contact lenses before instilling drops and wait fifteen minutes before putting them back, unless the drops are specifically made for use with lenses. Seek same-day care for eye pain, marked redness, sensitivity to light or any loss of vision. Steroid eye drops must only be used under medical supervision — used wrongly they can raise eye pressure and damage sight. Glaucoma drops must be used every day for life; there are no symptoms until sight is already lost.

Do not take Aquasurge Max if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for anyone with a known allergy to the preservative in the preparation.

Interactions with other medicines

Beta blocker eye drops can be absorbed enough to slow the heart and tighten the airways — tell your doctor if you have asthma or a heart condition.

How to store Aquasurge Max

Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.

Quick tips for Aquasurge Max

  • Aquasurge Max Eye Drop stabilizes the natural tear film and maintains necessary lubrication so your eyes don’t get dry and irritated.
  • Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute immediately after instilling the drop.
  • Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution of this medicine.
  • A stinging sensation may occur for 1-2 minutes.
  • Notify your doctor if it persists for longer.
  • Make sure to use it within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
