Description

Trypan Blue is contraindicated when a non-hydrated (dry state), hydrophilic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) is planned to be inserted into the eye because the dye may be absorbed by the IOL and stain the IOL.

Pregnancy Category C. There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Trypan Blue should be given to a pregnant woman only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Lactation: It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when Trypan Blue is administered to a nursing woman.

It is recommended that after injection all excess Trypan Blue should be immediately removed from the eye by thorough irrigation of the anterior chamber.

Pediatric use: The safety and effectiveness of Trypan Blue have been established in pediatric patients. Use of Trypan Blue is supported by evidence from an adequate and well controlled study in pediatric patients. Geriatric use: No overall differences in safety and effectiveness have been observed between elderly and younger patients.
