Steroid drops like Maxidex should not be suddenly stopped!. They must be slowly tapered to a stop!. Keep taking it and call your doctor tomorrow morning!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If it seems to be worsening then stop!. Consult with ur OD a!.s!.a!.p!.

U may be allergic to the ingredients!.

The drops r supposed to help; not worsen!. If its worsening STOP!. Consult with him so he can Rx u something eles!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
