A member asked:
From april 2013, 75mg dothiepin. from oct 2013, 37.5mg. have severe dry eyes 1 month ago. doc said it's blepharitis. is it side effect of dothiepin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can be: Dethepin has been known to induce mouth and eye dryness. It is usually mild but those who have dryness to begin with can have more dryness added on. You say it is severe which is a hint that you might want to bring this up with the physician who initially prescribed dothepin.
