Important Information You Need to Know Before Using Xiidra:

• Xiidra is for use in the eye.
• Wash your hands before each use to make sure you do not infect your eyes while using Xiidra.
• If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using Xiidra.
• Xiidra single‑use containers are packaged in a foil pouch. Do not remove from the foil pouch until you are ready to use Xiidra.
• Do not let the tip of the Xiidra single-use container touch your eye or any other surfaces.
• Use one drop of Xiidra in each eye two times each day (one drop in the morning and one drop in the evening, approximately 12 hours apart). Each single‑use container of Xiidra will give you enough medicine to treat both of your eyes, one time. There is some extra Xiidra in each single‑use container in case you miss getting a drop into your eye. After you have applied the drops, throw away the single‑use container and any unused Xiidra. Do not save any unused Xiidra.
