What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Routes of administration

Eye drops

Directions

The instructions that come with your Bromday prescription should be followed. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about any questions or concerns that arise.

The typical Bromday dosage includes placing one drop into the affected eye(s) once daily starting on the day before surgery and continuing through the two weeks following the surgery.

Do not let the tip of the dropper touch any surface in order to prevent contamination. 

When using Bromday with other eye drops, wait 5 minutes before placing additional drops in your eye(s).

Ingredients

Bromfenac sodium hydrate is the active ingredient in Bromday. Benzalkonium chloride is added to act as a preservative. The inactive ingredients in Bromday include boric acid, disodium edetate, polysorbate 80, povidone, sodium borate, sodium sulfite anhydrous, and water for injection, USP. Sodium hydroxide is added to balance the pH. 

Cautions

  • Before starting treatment with Bromday, talk to your doctor about:
    • All the medications you use, including other eye drops
    • Your allergies
    • Your medical history and current health problems
    • If you are pregnant or breastfeeding
  • In people who are sensitive to sulfite, the sodium sulfite contained in Bromday can cause an allergic reaction. These reactions can be asthmatic or life threatening. Immediately seek medical attention if you experience trouble breathing, swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat, rapid heartbeat, or rash. 
  • Slowed or prolonged healing can occur with the use of Bromday, especially if used with other topical steroids or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
  • If you are sensitive to acetylsalicylic acid, phenylacetic acid derivatives, and other NSAIDs, use caution with Bromday as cross-sensitivity reactions can occur.
  • Excessive bleeding time can be caused by some NSAIDs as they can affect blood clotting. If you have a blood clotting disorder or take other medications that can affect bleeding time, use Bromday with caution. 
  • Bromday can cause Keratitis. Epithelial breakdown or thinning, erosion, ulceration, or perforation of the cornea(s) can be experienced with prolonged use of Bromday.
  • Avoid wearing contact lenses while administering Bromday.

Side Effects

Some patients may feel like they have something in their eye(s) while using Bromday. Conjunctival hyperemia and burning or stinging of the eye(s), eye pain, eye itching, eye redness, headache, and swelling or irritation of the colored part of your eye can also occur. 

If you develop bothersome or persistent side effects, contact your doctor.
