- in the presence of recognized ocular hypertensioninduced by glucocorticoids (a family of corticosteroids),
- if you are allergic(hypersensitive) to desamethasone sodium phosphateor to any of the excipients of DEXAMONO.
Warnings and precautions

- If you have a corneal ulcer. You should not use topical desamethasone treatment, or use DEXAMONO unless inflammation is the main cause of delayed healing,
- If you have pre-existing increased intraocular pressure. If you have previously reacted to topical steroid treatment with increased intraocular pressure, if treated with DEXAMONO you are at risk of developing increased intraocular pressure,

concomitant topical therapy with steroids and beta-blockers.

take any other medicine.

- There are insufficient data on the use of DEXAMONO during pregnancy to assess possible harmful effects. For this reason, it is recommended not to use DEXAMONO during pregnancy.
- It is not known whether this medicine is excreted in breast milk. However, the total dose of desamethasone is low. Therefore DEXAMONO can be used during breastfeeding.
