    Sometimes AZASITE 1%ophth solution 2.ML makes my eyes have mater in them in the morning. I don't use it every night because of that . I think it drys my eyes up also.

    Rx plan substituted this med after my erythromycin ointment unavailable (for blepharitis/dry eye). From day one, my eyes burned & itched like crazy, unlike the other one with lubricants added. Will be seeing eye doctoe Tuesday & will report this--it's also pretty expensive, even with the coverage & has to be refrigerated as well!

    Trying to shake it upside down to mix solution and even harder to squeezing to get the drops on such small bottle is difficult, not sure if you’re putting the right amount in each eye. This product is over price I paid half of the cost with insurance no generic version but is a hefty price when doctor recommended two refills.

    This should never be ordered for a single or elderly patient. The $50 copay is criminal for this tiny bottle. The thick contents will not come out right. You get a huge blob that misses the eye because you are squeezing with all your might. It is frustrating and what little medication reaches the eye hurts for 15 - 20 minutes. I can't speak to the effectiveness really because of the defec ... Show Full Comment

    It works, but way too expensive for the amount you get. If they charge so much, at least they could give you a few more mls. I used it for chronic blepharitis and it works well but doesn't last long. I'm looking for an alternative.
