23 6 Brace the remaining fingers of that hand against your face. 7 While looking up, gently squeeze the dropper so that a single drop falls into the pocket made by the lower eyelid. Remove your index finger from the lower eyelid. 8 Close your eye for 2 to 3 minutes and tip your head down as though looking at the floor. Try not to blink or squeeze your eyelids. 9 Place a finger on the tear duct and apply gentle pressure. 10 Wipe any excess liquid from your face with a tissue. 11 If you are to use more than one drop in the same eye, wait at least 5 minutes before instilling the next drop. 12 Replace and tighten the cap on the dropper bottle. Do not wipe or rinse the dropper tip. 23

Remove your index finger from the lower eyelid. 25

Pull the ear backward and upward (or if giving to a child younger than 3 years of age, pull backward and downward) to open the ear canal. 27

31 6 Place the correct number of drops into your nose. Keep your head tilted back for a few minutes to allow the drops to drain into the back of the nose. 7 Bend your head forward toward your knees and gently move it left and right. 8 Repeat this procedure for the other nostril if advised to do so by your doctor or pharmacist. 9 Clean the dropper tip with warm water.

35 6 Lubricate the suppository tip with a water-soluble lubricant such as K-Y Jelly, not petroleum jelly (Vaseline).
