Benefits of Systane Ultra

In Constipation
Systane Ultra softens the stool or encourages the bowel to move, relieving constipation and the straining, bloating and discomfort that go with it.
In Bowel preparation
Systane Ultra empties the bowel completely before a colonoscopy or surgery, so the doctor has a clear view and the procedure is safe.
In Dry skin
Systane Ultra puts moisture back into dry skin and seals it in, relieving tightness, flaking and roughness.
In Eczema
Systane Ultra keeps eczema-prone skin soft and supple, which reduces flares and the need for steroid creams when used every day.
In Skin barrier repair
Systane Ultra restores the skin's natural protective layer so it holds water better and reacts less to irritants.
In Itching due to dryness
Systane Ultra relieves the itch that comes from dry skin by rehydrating it, which also protects the skin from scratch damage.

How Systane Ultra works

Polyethylene glycol 400 and propylene glycol act as ocular lubricants that supplement the tear film and reduce friction on the ocular surface. They help stabilize the tear layer, soothe irritation and provide longer-lasting comfort in dry eye.

How to take Systane Ultra

For ophthalmic use only. Instill 1–2 drops in the affected eye(s) as needed or as directed by a doctor. If using with other eye medicines, keep a gap of at least 5–10 minutes. Do not touch the dropper tip to any surface; recap tightly after use.

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

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause severe loose motions, dehydration and salt imbalance. It is not a realistic risk from a moisturiser used on the skin. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Systane Ultra

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

  • Temporary blurred vision
  • mild eye irritation or burning
  • eye redness
  • watery eyes
  • sticky sensation
  • foreign body sensation

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.

Quick tips for Systane Ultra

  • Increase fibre, fluids and physical activity.
  • These treat the cause rather than the episode.
  • Do not ignore the urge to go; a regular routine helps.
  • Use lukewarm water, a soap substitute and short baths.
  • Smooth it on in the direction the hair grows rather than rubbing it in hard.
  • Keep using it when the skin looks normal.
  • That is what prevents the next flare.
