After your XIPERE® injection, your eye doctor will monitor you for elevated eye pressure following treatment and manage it with medication or surgery if required.

Contact your eye doctor right away if your eyes become red, sensitive to light or painful, or if you notice changes in your vision.

If being treated with XIPERE for extended periods of time, you will be monitored for problems with the body’s hormonal system, which controls the ability to respond to stress.

In clinical studies, the most common eye-related side effects were increased eye pressure and eye pain. Other side effects included cataracts, floaters or flashes of light, injection site pain, burst blood vessels, reduced or blurred vision, dry eye, light sensitivity, redness, infection, swelling, watery eyes, eye or eyelid irritation, bumps on the eyelid, itchy eyes, and drooping eyelid.

The most common non-eye-related side effect was headache.

Let your doctor know if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant as corticosteroids should be used during pregnancy or nursing only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus or nursing infant.
