Product information
Not every product may be listed, or have full data. Every effort is being made to fill in the gaps as soon as possible. It will continue to grow in breadth and depth as data arrives and products are released, almost on a daily basis. Endeavours will be made to include information on 'retailers' drops such as Sainsbury's, Superdrug etc, so you can have data available when your patient tells you they are using Tesco Allergy Drops (Sodium Cromoglicate) and asks "can I use it with my contact lenses?". If you would like to propose products for the database, have any ideas, suggestions, would like to provide missing data or see any factual inaccuracies please email adpconsultancy@gmail.com
