What is Nevanac Eye Drops (Nepafenac) prescribed for?

Nepafenac belongs to a group of drugs known as anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). And generally how it works is by blocking the natural substance in your body, known as Prostaglandin, which is the cause of the pain and the swelling.

This medication is usually applied 3 times a day, starting 1 day before your surgery. You are are to commence usage of them on the day after surgery and for 2 weeks after that as well. Your doctor will give you specific instructions; listen to what they have to offer.
