How Ocupain Eye Drop works
Ocupain Eye Drop is a combination of two medicines: flurbiprofen, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and phenyl mercuric nitrate. Flurbiprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose is a lubricating formulation similar to natural tears. It provides temporary relief of burning and discomfort due to dryness of the eye.
