CEQUA is a prescription medication containing cyclosporine, used to increase the production of natural tears in patients with dry eye disease (keratoconjunctivitis sicca). It contains 0.09% cyclosporine ophthalmic solution. It is a calcineurin inhibitor immunosuppressant and works by reducing inflammation in the eye to increase the production of natural tears. It works by increasing the number of tears you make.

Cequa is available as a topical solution that is applied directly to the eye usually twice a day (about 12 hours apart). If you are using another kind of eye medication (such as drops or ointments), wait at least 15 minutes before applying other medications. Use eye drops before eye ointments to allow the drops to enter the eye.

To use CEQUA Dropperette single-use dispenser:

  1. Wash your hands before handling the dropper.
  2. Tear open the foil pouch and remove the dropper.
  3. Hold the dropper vertically and twist off the tip.
  4. Tilt your head back and look up.
  5. Gently pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
  6. Place the tip of the dropper close to your eye and squeeze one drop into the pocket.
  7. Close your eyes and press a finger against the corner of your eye (near the nose) for 1 minute to prevent the medication from draining out.
  8. Discard the dropper after use.

The recommended dosage for CEQUA is one drop in each affected eye twice a day, approximately 12 hours apart.
