Tiopex and indigestion

I take one drop of Tiopex in each eye once a day. Over recent months I've had quite a lot of trouble with very uncomfortable indigestion which doesn't seem to be helped by the usual remedies. I see indigestion is listed as a possible side effect.

Has anyone any advice or information?

Hello. If you feel it is the Tiopex that is causing your indigestion, do contact the eye secretary at the hospital, to see if your eye specialist can change it to a different eye drop.
