What warnings and precautions are associated with UPNEEQ?

  • Low-lying lids may be related to conditions such as stroke and/or brain aneurysm, Horner syndrome, myasthenia gravis, loss of the ability to move eye muscles, eye infection and eye tumors. Tell your doctor if you have any of these conditions.
  • UPNEEQ is a type of medication that may affect your blood pressure. If you have heart disease, uncontrolled high or low blood pressure, or feel faint at rest or when quickly standing up, you should call your doctor if your symptoms get worse.
  • Patients with reduced blood flow to the brain or heart, or patients who experience eye or mouth dryness due to an immune system disorder (Sjögren’s syndrome), should use care when taking UPNEEQ. Call your doctor immediately if you feel your symptoms may be getting worse.
  • UPNEEQ may increase the risk of eye pressure due to fluid buildup (angle-closure glaucoma) in patients with untreated narrow-angle glaucoma. Call your doctor immediately if you feel increased pressure in your eye after using UPNEEQ.
  • Do not let the tip of the UPNEEQ vial touch your eye or any other surface. This can help prevent eye injury or contamination. Each UPNEEQ vial is for one-time use and should be discarded after being used.

AQUAGOLD®

What are the advantages of AQUAGOLD® fine touch™?

AQUAGOLD® fine touch delivers low doses of injectable drugs at a consistent depth and is almost pain-free. This is a major advantage over the conventional syringe manual injection approach for certain sensitive areas, preventing overdosing or getting the needles too deep into the skin.

What is the size of the microchannels?

The microchannels are 600 micrometers (0.6 mm) long and 130 micrometers (0.13 mm) wide, each thinner than a human hair.

How is AQUAGOLD® fine touch™ different from microneedle devices?

The intended use of AQUAGOLD® fine touch is to inject low doses of drugs into the skin. This is very different from “microneedling”, where the intended use is to wound or stimulate the skin, affecting function or structure of the body. AQUAGOLD® fine touch device is not a microneedling device.

Can AQUAGOLD® fine touch™ be used multiple times?

No. AQUAGOLD® fine touch™ is designed and sterilized for single-patient, single use only.

Why are the AQUAGOLD® fine touch™ microchannels made of gold-plated stainless steel?

The surgical grade stainless steel provides the structural integrity of the microchannel. Pure gold has high biocompatibility with human skin, preventing skin irritation and allergic responses after use. Impurities and other metals may result in unnecessary irritation.
