Other warnings/precautions:

• Accidental ingestion: Accidental ingestion by children of nonprescription (OTC) imidazoline-derivative eye drops and nasal sprays may result in serious harm. Serious adverse reactions (eg, coma, bradycardia, respiratory depression, sedation) requiring hospitalization have been reported in children ≤5 years of age who had ingested even small amounts (eg, 1 to 2 mL). Contact a poison control center and seek emergency medical care immediately for accidental ingestion (FDA Drug Safety Communication, 2012).

Discontinue use and notify health care provider if symptoms worsen or persist >48 hours (>72 hours [OTC]) or if symptoms of systemic absorption occur (ie, dizziness, headache, nausea, decrease in body temperature, drowsiness). Overuse may produce increased redness of the eye; pupils may become enlarged temporarily.
