Ketotifen is the non-proprietary name for an antihistamine and mast cell stabilizer, used to prevent or treat allergic reactions.

It's possible to buy Ketotifen under a wide range of brand and generic names, Asthafen and Zaditor among the more widely recognized, though there are many others.

Patients can also buy Ketotifen in several formulas; tablets and oral solution for preventing allergies, or ophthalmic solution for treating eye allergies. Tablets usually require a prescription to purchase, as do some higher-strength ophthalmic solutions, though it's usually possible to buy lighter-strength Ketotifen ophthalmic solution over-the-counter.

Ketotifen can be used in patients age 2 and up, provided dosage is modified accordingly.

Ketotifen Tablets

Tablets see the widest range of use, as patients buy Ketotifen to prevent:

• Asthma
• Allergic rhinitis
• Allergic conjunctivitis
• Atopic dermatitis
• Urticaria
• Food allergy

In all the above, Ketotifen is only a preventive measure---it reduces the frequency of allergic reactions. The medication will provide little benefit once an allergic attack has begun; those who have potentially life-threatening conditions, such as asthma or some food allergies, should keep rescue treatments on-hand in case they're needed.

Most patients taking Ketotifen will notice a significant reduction in allergy symptoms, even if directly exposed to allergens. Reliance on rescue treatments should be significantly reduced. Treatment in otherwise healthy adults consists of:

• Start with 0.5 to 1 mg per day, once per day, taken at bedtime.
• After a couple of weeks, dosage may be increased to 2 or 4 mg per day, taken in divided doses.
• The majority of patients find sufficient relief with 1 mg twice per day, taken morning and evening.

It takes a few weeks of treatment for significant benefit to be seen. Those who buy Ketotifen to prevent seasonable or predictable exposure to allergies should start treatment 2 to 4 weeks prior to exposure and continue throughout exposure.

Ketotifen Eye Drops

While tablets can help prevent eye allergies from starting, once they have started Ketotifen eye drops will provide rapid relief. Dosage is simple in all ages:

• Apply one drop in each affected eye.
• Repeat twice per day if needed, morning and evening.

Patients will find the redness, itchiness, weeping and other symptoms associated with allergic reaction are minimized or eliminated within moments of application. Patients undergoing continued exposure to allergens should continue treatment even if no allergic symptoms are present.

Whether or not one needs a prescription to buy Ketotifen eye drops depends on a number of factors, including the strength of the medication and patient location. In most areas, lower-dose formulas are available over-the-counter.
