Rose bengal sodium is a synthetic xanthene dye, primarily used as a diagnostic staining agent in ophthalmology for evaluating eye surface damage and dry eye, and has also been investigated as a therapeutic agent for certain cancers (e.g., metastatic melanoma) under the name PV-10. It is mainly approved as a diagnostic ocular agent and is not an approved systemic therapeutic drug.
No published pharmacokinetic data for rose bengal sodium as an ophthalmic agent in humans. Estimates based on general physicochemical and use characteristics.
