Contraindications
Hypersensitivity. ( 4.1 ) 4.1 Hypersensitivity MIEBO is contraindicated in patients with a history of hypersensitivity reaction to perfluorohexyloctane [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )] .
Adverse Reactions
Most common ocular adverse reaction was blurred vision. Blurred vision was reported in less than 4% of individuals. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Bausch & Lomb Incorporated at 1-800-553-5340 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch. 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. In patients with DED, 614 patients received at least one dose of MIEBO in two randomized controlled clinical trials across 68 sites in the United States. The most common ocular adverse reaction was blurred vision. Blurred vision and conjunctival redness were reported in 1-3% of individuals. In four premarketing studies (three open-label [n=127], one randomized [n=24 treated with at least one dose of perfluorohexyloctane]) the most common adverse reaction was hypersensitivity.
