Drug Overview: ReNu with MoistureLoc Side Effects and Claims
Bausch & Lomb voluntarily withdrew its soft contact lens solution, ReNu with MoistureLoc, from the market on April 13, 2006. ReNu with MoistureLoc was a solution used for storing, cleaning, and moisturizing soft contact lenses. ReNu was approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) in 2004 and reportedly brought Bausch & Lomb $45 million in revenue in 2005. The ReNu claim was that it cleaned and disinfected contact lenses without the need to rub them. This cleaning method may have contributed to the increase in fungal infections that is now identified as a ReNu with MoistureLoc side effect.
