  • Place your index finger over the inner corner of your eye for 1 minute. Do not rinse or wipe the dropper or allow it to touch anything, including your eye.
  • Put the cap on the bottle right away. If you are using any other eye drops, wait at least 5 minutes after using unoprostone before you put the other drops in your eyes. Never share your medicine with anyone.
