ALCATOP OPHTHALMIC SOLUTION is used to manage eye itching associated with allergic conjunctivitis. It contains Alcaftadine, which belongs to the group of medicines called Ocular antihistamines and decongestants. It blocks the effects of certain chemicals (Ex. histamines) in the body, which are responsible for triggering the allergic response. Therefore, when administered to the eyes, it manages the onset of allergic reactions such as eye itching, irritation, or inflammation.
