What is Artelac Ectoin ® ?
Artelac Ectoin ® is a medical device that contains Ectoin ® , a natural cell-protecting molecule with properties to reduce inflammation and stabilize the membrane, and hyaluronic acid, a natural molecule that soothes the eye through its ability to bind water to a high degree and its stabilizing properties.
The advanced formula has a very high tolerability, as it does not contain preservatives and buffers.
What is the purpose of Artelac Ectoin ® ?
Artelac Ectoin ® is eye drops, an isotonic solution, which can be used for the treatment and prevention of symptoms of seasonal and year-round allergic conjunctivitis caused, for example, by pollen, dust mites, animal fur or mold. Effectively reduces itching, irritation, redness or watery eyes; moistening them leads to relief.
Based on the available data, the product can be used in children, pregnant and lactating women.
When should you use Artelac Ectoin ® ?
Artelac Ectoin ® stabilizes the natural tear film in two ways: hyaluronic acid has a positive effect on the aqueous phase and Ectoin ® strengthens the lipid phase. This dual mode of action protects the eye from the harmful effects of allergens and other external factors and supports the regeneration process of the irritated and sensitive conjunctiva. Artelak Ectoin ® does not contain preservatives and is suitable for people who wear contact lenses and for sensitive eyes.
How often and how long should you use Artelac Ectoin ® ?
Apply 1-2 drops of Artelac Ectoin ® in the eye as needed. You can use it every day and as often as you want. There is no limit on the duration of use.
