How to Use HOW TO USE: Use this medication in the affected eye(s) as directed by your doctor, usually 1 drop twice daily. Use in the eye only. Do not swallow or inject. Dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Follow your doctor's directions on how to use this medication. To apply eye drops, wash your hands first. To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface. Before using, check this product visually for brown discoloration, cloudiness, or particles. If any of these is present, do not use the eye drops. The preservative in this product may be absorbed by contact lenses. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using your eye drops. Wait at least 15 minutes after using this medication before putting your contact lenses back in. Tilt your head back, look upward, and pull down the lower eyelid to make a pouch. Hold the dropper directly over the eye and place one drop in the pouch. Look downward and gently close your eyes for 1-2 minutes. Place one finger at the corner of the eye near the nose and apply gentle pressure. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Try not to blink and do not rub the eye. Repeat these steps for your other eye if directed by your doctor. Do not rinse the dropper. Replace the dropper cap after each use. If you are using another kind of eye medication (such as drops or ointments), wait at least 10 minutes before applying other medications. Use the eye drops before eye ointments to allow the eye drops to enter the eye. Use this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, use it at the same times each day. Keep using this medication even if you feel well. Most people with high pressure in the eye do not feel sick.

Precautions PRECAUTIONS: Before using carteolol, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or to other beta blockers (such as timolol); or if you have any other allergies. This product may contain inactive ingredients (such as preservatives) which can cause allergic reactions or other problems. Talk to your pharmacist for more details. Before using this medication, tell your doctor or pharmacist your medical history, especially of: lung disease/breathing problems (such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease-COPD), slow/irregular heartbeat (such as bradycardia, AV block), heart disease (such as chest pain, heart attack, heart failure), diabetes, overactive thyroid (such as hyperthyroidism), blood circulation problems (such as Raynaud's disease, peripheral vascular disease), low blood flow to the brain (cerebral insufficiency, stroke), mental/mood disorders (such as depression), certain nerve/muscle problems (such as myasthenia gravis), history of severe allergic reactions (such as anaphylaxis, atopy). If you develop an eye infection or injury, or have eye surgery, check with your doctor about whether you should continue to use your current bottle of carteolol. You may be advised to start using a new bottle. After you apply this drug, your vision may become temporarily blurred. Do not drive, use machinery, or do any activity that requires clear vision until you can do it safely. Before having surgery, tell your doctor or dentist about all the products you use (including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal products). This product may prevent the fast/pounding heartbeat you would usually feel when your blood sugar level falls too low (hypoglycemia). The risk is higher if you have diabetes, or are vomiting, fasting, or not eating regularly. Other symptoms of low blood sugar level, such as dizziness and sweating, are not affected by this drug. If you have diabetes, this product may make it harder to control your blood sugar levels. Check your blood sugar levels regularly as directed by your doctor. Tell your doctor right away if you have symptoms of high blood sugar such as increased thirst/urination. Your doctor may need to adjust your diabetes medication, exercise program, or diet. During pregnancy, this medication should be used only when clearly needed. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. It is unknown if this medication passes into breast milk. Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.
