Maxidex Suspension


Generic Name: Dexamethasone Ophthalmic Suspension (DEX-ah-METH-ah-sone)
Brand Name: Maxidex

Maxidex Suspension is used for:

Treating swelling, itching, redness, and irritation of the eyes and eyelids. It may also be used for other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Maxidex Suspension is an ophthalmic corticosteroid. It works by stopping the inflammatory response (redness, swelling, itching, warmth, pain) of the eye tissues caused by irritating or allergy-causing agents.

Do NOT use Maxidex Suspension if:

  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Maxidex Suspension
  • you have certain other eye infections (eg, herpes, tuberculosis, fungal, or viral infection)

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Maxidex Suspension:

Some medical conditions may interact with this medicine. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:

  • if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances
  • if you have diabetes or thinning of the cornea or other eye tissues

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Maxidex Suspension. Because little, if any, of Maxidex Suspension is absorbed into the blood, the risk of it interacting with another medicine is low.

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Maxidex Suspension may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.

How to use Maxidex Suspension:

  • Remove contact lenses before using Maxidex Suspension.
  • Shake well before each use.
  • To use Maxidex Suspension in the eye, first, wash your hands. Using your index finger, pull the lower eyelid away from your eye to form a pouch. Squeeze a thin strip of ointment into the pouch. After using Maxidex Suspension, gently close your eyes for 1 to 2 minutes. Wash your hands to remove any medicine that may be on them. Wipe the applicator tip with a clean, dry tissue.
  • To prevent germs from contaminating your medicine, do not touch the applicator tip to any surface, including the eye. Keep the container tightly closed.
  • If you miss a dose of Maxidex Suspension, use it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not use 2 doses at once.

Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Maxidex Suspension.
