Product Overview
Composition: Sodium Cromoglycate (2% w/v)
Cromal Eye Drops 5 ml belongs to a class of medicines called ‘anti-inflammatory or anti-allergic drugs’ used to treat eye redness, itchy and watery eyes caused by allergies such as hay fever, per hair and house dust mites. An allergy is an immune system response to foreign elements typically not harmful to your body. Eye allergy is when the eye becomes red and swollen, leading to inflammation, discomfort, and pain.

Thus, it prevents allergic response and reduces allergic symptoms. Cromal Eye Drops 5 ml is only for ophthalmic use (eyes). You are advised to use Cromal Eye Drops 5 ml for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you based on your medical condition.
