About this product.

Cyclosporine/Tacrolimus Ophthalmic Drops

  • Tacrolimus is used to treat eye conditions such as dry eye and chronic superficial keratitis in dogs, as well as immune-mediated keratitis and pannus in dogs and horses. It is also used to treat necrotizing otitis externa, a severe ear condition caused by overactive immune response, by suppressing the immune system to reduce inflammation and improve symptoms.
  • Side effects that may occur but are generally not serious include mild burning, stinging, irritation, or redness of the eyes, eyelid spasms, and hair loss around the eye.
  • When using this medication, it is important to wear gloves to prevent contamination and to avoid handling it if you are pregnant. Make sure to properly administer the medication and keep the cap tightly closed when not in use.

Directions for administration.

  • Wash your hands before each use.
  • Avoid contamination by preventing the tip of the dropper from touching the pet’s eyes.
  • Hold the dropper at a downward, 45-degree angle. Hover over the pet’s eye and press firmly on the upper, wider part of the dropper stem to release a drop.

Medication storage.

  • Eye drops are dispensed in a sealed, pre-sterilized container. Do not transfer the liquid contents of your dropper bottle to another bottle.
  • Store dropper bottles upright and avoid laying them on their sides for extended periods of time
  • Most eye drops should be stored at controlled room temperature
  • It is very important to know that storage requirements vary on a drug-by-drug basis. Please reference and follow the specific storage recommendations for each individual drug. These recommendations can be found on the prescription label or auxiliary label affixed to the prescription bottle.

How do I request a refill of my medication?

There are three ways to refill your prescription at Northwest Compounders:

  • Call the pharmacy at 503-352-3811 and press “0” to speak with any staff member. We will be happy to assist you with your refill request.
  • You may also call the pharmacy at 503-352-3811 and press “2” to leave a voicemail requesting a refill. We will call you when your order is complete to let you know that it is ready for pick up or that we are shipping it out (per patient preference).
  • Finally, you can request a refill online.

Can my order be shipped?

Northwest Compounders offers free shipping on every order. 

Can my order be shipped to me in a different state?

Northwest Compounders is currently licensed in and can ship medications to OR, WA, ID, ND, SD, WY, UT, CO, AZ, NM, MT and AK. Northwest Compounders has licenses pending approval in TX and CA and will be able to ship into these states soon.

How long will it take for my order to arrive?

Please allow a period of 1 to 3 business days from the time it was ordered for your medication to be delivered. Orders placed at 4:30pm or later may take up to 4 business days to arrive in rare circumstances.

I left my medication out of the fridge accidentally, is it still okay to use?

Most of our liquid medications are stored refrigerated for flavor purposes only. If your bottle is labeled with an auxiliary label that says “may refrigerate,” refrigeration is not required for stability. If your bottle is labeled with an auxiliary label that says “refrigerate,” it is best to call the pharmacy at 503-352-3811 to confirm stability after a period of unrefrigerated storage.

What is the proper way to dispose of unwanted medication?

  • Unwanted and unused drugs may be dropped at some police and sheriff stations.
  • Unwanted medications may also be brought to a hazardous waste facility or collection event in your area.
  • If you must dispose of the medication at home, the best way to do so is to fill a ziplock bag with kitty litter or coffee grounds and dump the medication into the ziplock bag. The ziplock bag containing the grounds/litter and medication can then be disposed of in your regular garbage.
  • If you have non-expired medication that you no longer need, you may be able to donate it to a veterinary clinic. It is best to check with the clinic beforehand to see if they are able to accept your donation. 

Is it possible to return an unused compounded medication for a refund?

Due to the custom-made nature of compounded medications, we are unable to accept returns and cannot offer refunds on medications once compounding has been performed.
