Thank you for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach with your question about Naz. Medications have to list potential side effects, but it doesn't always happen. Yes it is typically a safe medication. I hope this helps!

If there is pus, then there is probably an infection/conjunctivitis. You can try Terramycin eye ointment. It is the only one that does not require a prescription. We are not allowed to write prescriptions over the internet for animals we have never examined - it's against the law. So, try this twice a day for 5-7 days and if it doesn't help she will need to see a vet. https://www.jefferspet.com/products/terramycin-eye-ointment

Ideally, he should be physically examined by your veterinarian before any treatment is administered. He may need systemic antibiotics in addition to topical treatment. Pain medication may also be indicated. Legally, we are prohibited from telling you to medicate your pet in the absence of a physical exam and a VPCR (veterinarian-patient-client relationship).

Terramycin is commonly prescribed in cats and kittens, but I cannot recommend its use for Snowball until she has been examined by a veterinarian to make sure that it is the appropriate medication for her eye problem.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I only recommend erythromycin or terramycin be used in a cats eye. I recommend, if Riley is having an issue with her eyes, that you see a Veterinarian before putting anything in them. You don't want to do more harm than good. Cats are very sensitive and can react to many eye medications and can react to them all! I hope this helps and I wish you the best!
