The usual recommended dose of olopatadine 0.1% is 1 to 2 drops in each affected eye twice daily.
The usual recommended dose of olopatadine 0.2% is 1 drop in each affected eye once daily.
Before using the eye drops, wash your hands thoroughly. Follow your doctor or pharmacist's instructions on how to use the eye drops. Do not allow the eye dropper to touch any surface.

It is important to use Olopatadine exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
Store Olopatadine at room temperature and keep it out of the reach of children.
