To help pets find relief from eye pain, veterinarians may prescribe this Atropine Sulfate Ophthalmic Solution. These sterile eye drops dilate the pupils, which helps decrease pain. They're safe for use in both cats and dogs and can be used to help manage pain caused by certain eye diseases or injuries. Atropine sulfate eye drops are also used for post-surgical applications as well. The solution is easy to apply thanks to the integrated dropper.How it Works

Atropine has an effect on the pet's parasympathetic nervous system. This medication works by blocking acetylcholine transmission. This is a chemical that inhibits or excites specific activities, including pupil constriction and dilation. Atropine paralyzes the iris sphincter muscle, resulting in pupil dilation.
