How to Use Xiidra

Take Xiidra twice daily as prescribed by your doctor. It helps to set a reminder to apply one drop in each eye, twice a day, approximately 12 hours apart. Be sure not to touch the container tip to your eye or any surface.

Single-Use Containers

Xiidra comes in single-use containers. Each container holds enough medicine to treat both of your eyes for one application. Once the container is opened, it is important that you apply Xiidra right away. Then throw out the container along with any unused solution. Don’t save it for later.

Follow treatment as recommended by your eye doctor

It's important to know that Xiidra can take time to work, and it may take some time for you to see symptom relief.

Xiidra reduced symptoms of eye dryness at 2 weeks in 2 out of 4 clinical studies, with improvements observed at 6 and 12 weeks in all 4 studies.

Dry eye is considered chronic and may be progressive. Be sure to use Xiidra as directed by your doctor—and discuss any questions with them.
