"I have possibly the worst eye allergies in the world. My eyes and face get beet red. I swell and itch to the point of madness. Tried everything. Zantidor did nothing but make it worse. I put Bepreve in my eyes for the first time. And after 2 minutes, I was so relieved that the itch was gone that I had to lay down. Finally got a few hours of real sleep. Minimal taste in my mouth, but that's a very small price to pay for getting rid of my itching, burning, swollen eye hell."

"Bepreve has changed my life! I have suffered with an undiagnosed eye condition for 8 years, some days it's so bad I have to make myself go to sleep just to get reprieve. After several different eye drops and no relief, Bepreve has completely eliminated my chronic eye condition. No more fishing out ropey eye mucus, no more itch or inflammation. I could kiss my optometrist, I'm so happy!"

"I was suffering from blepharitis for about 3 years. Severe eye allergies constantly plagued me, with recurring bouts of conjunctivitis. The only thing that helped me was expensive antibiotic drops to clear up the infections. After my 6th case of pink eye in a year, I went to see an eye specialist, and they recommended I try Bepreve. That was about 3 years ago. My blepharitis is minimal, pink eye is gone, allergies are minimal, and as long as I wear good UV protective sunglasses, I am fine."

"Been using this drop for the last 3 days and can honestly say that this is the 1st drop that has helped my raging allergy eyes in years! Make sure you ask for the big bottle, as my insurance company was charging me the same for the smaller bottle. Hope it works just as good as the allergy season gets worse later this year."

"The Bepreve drops work amazingly well, and with them I have greatly decreased redness, itching, swelling, and blurry vision. Once in a while, I taste them but not often, and that to me is a small price to pay for comfort. But I no longer can afford this product at $218 a bottle. Even with coupons, it is $70 for a 20-day or so supply. I wish these were more affordable, so I and others could benefit from them. So I'm unsure of what I'll do now, which makes me sad. My insurance will cover this drug after I make my $5,000 deductible."

"This, by far, is the most effective antihistamine eye drop I have ever used. Nothing else helped my symptoms, and I tried all other prescription antihistamine eye drops available. Bepreve has been a godsend, and I highly recommend anyone having severe eye itching to try this eye drop."

"I have had swollen eyes to the point they swell closed. Also, red, itchy eyes and eyelids. I was prescribed Bepreve drops. I am not sure they are working yet, but will likely never use again, as I experienced a severe metallic taste in my saliva as well as what felt to be a vapor hovering around the back of my throat. Saliva was a very bad, sour taste."

"These eye drops are great for relief of allergy symptoms. Keep in the fridge for maximum relief. The only issue I have had with them is that when I stopped using them my symptoms came back worse than when I started."

"I thought it was just me, but I've noticed a weird bitter taste about 10 minutes after using Bepreve eye drops. Glad to know I'm not crazy! At first, I thought it may have been the nasal spray I use, but then I took my drops before bed (the only meds I took), and the weird taste showed up. Who would've thought that eye drops could cause this? Those who are skeptical can read the leaflet and see that it is listed as a side effect. If you didn't experience it, count yourself lucky. I don't know about the effectiveness of it, as I just started using it for a few days, but so far, it has stopped my eyes from itching."

"Got a bad taste in the oat about 15 minutes after putting it in. Lasted about 10 minutes. It helps to suck on hard candy to keep taste at bay. I think it's working pretty well so far. I had a small growth on my eye from chronic dry eye (inflammation), this made it smaller dramatically."

"My new ophthalmologist prescribed this for itchy eyes due to allergies. It helps my itchy eyes but also relieves my constant nasal sinus congestion. The downside is very expensive, even with insurance."

"I am very confused about the reviews stating the bad aftertaste because this is an eye drop! I was given a sample by my optometrist. Previously, I was using Zaditor, which worked okay, but it wasn't great and sometimes irritated my eyes even more. Bepreve makes my eyes feel very refreshed and 'clear' of whatever it is that causes my eyes to feel dry, watery, and irritated. I don't use it daily, just when needed."

"Dr. said 1 drop per eye twice a day. I got the prescription filled right after my visit. It did nothing for redness when I initially used it, nor did it do anything for itching/swelling. I wanted instant relief and did not get it. If I could rate it a zero, I would."

"Surprised people are saying bad aftertaste, but I guess those tear ducts drain into the nasal cavity, which drains into the throat, so it makes sense. Just tried it; I feel better vs. all the other allergy drops I’ve taken. I'd rather not use eye drops long term. I feel that the eye drops help with the symptoms but not on the actual root of the problem. For me, I believe it's the contact lenses I wear that are causing my problems."

"Works well. A bad taste comes from it and a weird feeling in the back of my throat. However, the company does tell you how to avoid this if you read all the instructions."

"I used Bepreve and had no adverse side effects. I don't have a big problem, so I don't know if I will continue to pay the price. Too expensive. Why does it cost so much?"

"I never experienced any side effects. Cleared all problems with film, caused blurred and fogging vision. My only problem is it is not accepted by AARP Complete Solutions."

"This works wonderfully and within minutes, but gives you the worst taste in your mouth. I tasted it within minutes after using them. I guess it's a trade-off."

"I could taste the horrible bitterness at the back of my throat for about 30 minutes. Relieves the itchiness, but I also have to suffer the other way."
