Santen Pharmaceutical Sante Bio

Features

In today's information society, there are more and more opportunities to strain our eyes, which can lead to unpleasant eye symptoms such as eye fatigue, bloodshot eyes, and a lack of clarity.
Santevio is an eye drop that contains a balanced combination of seven active ingredients, including vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin), which activates the eye muscles (ciliary muscles) that adjust vision, neostigmine methylsulfate, which improves focusing function, and chlorpheniramine maleate, which suppresses eye inflammation, to improve eye fatigue and redness.
