The drops are in the medicine cabinet unopened. I was also given a script for Lotomax (a steroid) to take along with the Xiidra for the first two weeks. Right now I am dealing with another health problem and I dont feel motivated to start yet. Having had the bad experience with Restasis and having just read your message, I am feeling even less motivated.
I dont know what kind of dry eye problem. My eyes stopped producing enough tears about 40 years ago (Schirrmer's test). My first cousin has Sjogren's and there are other relatives with the dry eye problem and other autoimmune conditions. Will let you know if I begin using the Xiidra.
