Hello, if I started to stop taking mybracin eye drops too soon, can I go back to the previous dose by increasing it. Initially, I took it 3 times a day, then 2 times a day, then once a day. It's been 2 weeks. In case of relapse, can I go back to the initial dose 3 times a day. Or is it not?
I have 2 weeks until my doctor's appointment.

Mybracin should be used for as long as your doctor has told you. In the event that the time of the prescribed therapy has expired and the symptoms have reappeared, it is recommended to consult a doctor again. Do not increase the dose of the drug yourself (during the course of treatment) or increase the duration of the treatment. If you have used the medicine contrary to your doctor's instructions, I also encourage you to consult your doctor again.
If it is not possible to make an in-person visit or wait longer for an appointment, you can take advantage of a teleconsultation via e.g. the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

Mybracin may cause side effects such as irritation, redness, itching and pain in the eye, discomfort or the presence of a foreign body in the eye. These symptoms can be mistaken for ongoing inflammation. We wrote about whether to be afraid of the side effects of drugs in the article:

Suspected side effects of the preparation should be reported to the doctor during the consultation. Reporting side effects allows you to increase control over the medicines available on the market. We wrote more about how and why to report side effects in the article:

I am attaching a link that allows you to check the availability of the drug and make a reservation at the pharmacy of your choice:
