Alomide should be applied to the affected eye(s) four times daily or as directed by a healthcare provider. The usual practice is to wash hands before use, tilt the head back, pull down the lower eyelid to form a pouch, and apply one drop into the pouch without touching the dropper to any surface to avoid contamination. Close your eyes gently and press your finger at the corner of the eye near the nose for 1-2 minutes to prevent the medication from draining out.
