Can Without Comigan Drops Causes Any Side Effects?

I have been using comigan drops for treatment of uveitis for about 8 weeks. Ran out of my bottle and was out refills two days ago. I called my doctors office for a refill and they did not respond and now it is a holiday weekend so can i expect being without this steriod for 5 to 7 days to cause any side effects?

Hi,

It's better to keep it continued but this much gap won't cause much side effects. Steroids in high doses withdrawal may cause systemic side effects but in such low dose those are least possible. Local inflammation can recur but slowly tapering the dose on follow up examination is recommended otherwise.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Regards,
