How effective are Ketas eye drops 0.01% from Japan for allergic conjunctivitis (ibudilast)?
Ketas eye drops contain ibudilast, an anti-inflammatory substance. It works as a phosphodiesterase inhibitor and an antagonist at the toll-like receptor. Ibudilast controls release of chemical mediators such as histamine, suppresses allergic symptoms and reduces pain.

Ketas eye drops are effective for the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis, including hay fever. Studies showed that ibudilast ophthalmic solution decreases inflammatory and allergic responses better than cromoglycate, ketotifen, tranilast and levocabastine (Z. Huang, S. Liu et al. “Preferential inhibition of human phosphodiesterase 4 by ibudilast”. Life sciences, 2006, 78(23): 2663-8).
