Acuvail vs. Nevanac Prior to Cataract Surgery
Posted By Patient Letter to the Editor On August 24, 2010 @ 6:44 pm In Cataract | Comments Disabled
I am scheduled for cataract surgery later this week. My doctor prescribed and gave instructions for me to use Acuvail (drops) twice daily and Zymar 4 times daily, for three days before surgery and afterward. When I picked up the prescriptions, he had changed the Acuvail to Nevanac 3 times daily. What is the difference between Acuvail and Nevanac, and why might he have changed the prescription? I believe both are NSAIDs.
