Over 20 million Americans suffer from allergic conjunctivitis annually, a condition characterized by inflamed, itchy, and red eyes. Ketotifen, an over-the-counter eye drop, directly targets this allergic eye inflammation by acting as both an antihistamine and a mast cell stabilizer, providing quick and effective relief.

Ketotifen itself is the generic name for a medication used to treat allergic conjunctivitis. This second-generation H1-antihistamine and mast cell stabilizer is widely available over-the-counter for relieving itchy eyes caused by allergens like pollen, grass, and pet dander.
