Prescribing Guidelines

The initial prescription and renewal of the medication order beyond one bottle should be made by a physician only after examination of the patient with the aid of magnification, such as slit lamp biomicroscopy, and where appropriate, fluorescein staining. If signs and symptoms fail to improve after two days, the patient should be reevaluated.

Not more than one bottle should be prescribed initially, and the prescription should not be refilled without further evaluation.
