Dupilumab

There is a medicine called dupilumab (sold under the brand name Dupixent). It is used to treat allergic diseases, and it is a relatively new medication. One of the side effects of this medicine can be inflammation of the conjunctiva, which can be thought of as the “skin” over the white part of the eye. Occasionally, this inflammation can be severe. So, if you take this medicine and have redness or irritation of the eyes, it would be a good idea to have your eyes checked by an ophthalmologist.
