Clygan 1.5 Mg Gel 5 Gm contains the following components:

• Ganciclovir (1.5 mg): This antiviral medicine works by interfering with viral DNA replication in infected cells. After entering infected ocular cells, it is converted into its active form, which inhibits viral DNA polymerase and prevents viral multiplication. This helps control herpes simplex virus infection in the cornea and supports the healing of corneal lesions.
• Benzalkonium Chloride (0.01%): This ingredient acts as a preservative that helps maintain sterility and stability of the ophthalmic gel during storage and use. It also prevents microbial contamination of the product.

• Store below 30°C.
• Keep the tube tightly closed after use.
• Do not touch the applicator tip to avoid contamination.
• Discard the tube 4 weeks after opening.
• Keep out of reach of children.

• Avoid rubbing or touching infected eyes to prevent worsening of the infection.
• Wash your hands frequently to reduce the spread of viral infection.
• Avoid sharing towels, eye cosmetics, or contact lenses.
• Avoid wearing contact lenses during an active eye infection unless advised by your doctor.
