In what concerns posology, our team applied one drop every 2 days, and on average complete healing was reached 25 days after beginning treatment.

Guerra et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">8</span></a> began treatment with one drop of Cacicol® per week but increased it to 2 in the absence of improvement, observing healing at week 4.

Some authors pointed out that the best dose could be one drop every 2 or 3 days.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3,22</span></a> However, another author utilized drops on a daily basis with excellent results.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0095"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> The fact is that at this point in time posology continues to be based on the criterion of the ophthalmologist.</p><p id="par0115" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the present case series, the range of days to healing was from 10 to 60 after beginning treatment with Cacicol®. This variability means that the healing of the ulcer could be attributed not only to the use of Cacicol® but to the concomitant treatment that was applied and to natural cell repair. However, we have observed 3 patients (cases 1, 2 and 11) who had 21 and 91 days of conventional therapy without improvement and there also was healed 10 days after the introduction of Cacicol® and case 6, after 67 days of unsuccessful conventional therapy had the answer resolved 30 days after beginning treatment with Cacicol®. This notable improvement attributable to Cacicol® is not found in all healed cases, and the following cases were treated longer with Cacicol® before achieving healing compared to the time during which they were in conventional treatment. For instance, case 4 (infected ulcer) receives 25 days of conventional therapy and was healed after receiving 3 cycles of Cacicol® during 45 days. Cases 7 and 10, who had received 17 and 7 days of conventional therapy, were cured after 60 and 18 days, respectively. This could be due to the difficulty involved in ulcer closure due to the addition of corticoids 2 core adjuvants treatment, to the medical criterion of giving a short period of time for conventional therapy and initiating therapy with Cacicol® at an early (albeit not immediate) stage, or to the old age of patients.</p><p id="par0120" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In what concerns the number of cycles, 6 out of 9 healed patients received one cycle of Cacicol® and 3 utilize between 2 and 3 cycles thereof. Between the first and second cycle of Cacicol® an interval of between 0 and 14 days was maintained. The authors believe that the interval between cycles, which was determined by the treating ophthalmologist, could have influenced the healing time. The literature does not provide uniformity in posology, timelines and other practical aspects of the use of Cacicol®. Some authors have reported continuous use of Cacicol® up to healing<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0065"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13,15</span></a> while others utilized it for one month<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0070"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">14</span></a> and yet others extended it for a long time after healing.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a></p><p id="par0125" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Out of the 2 failed cases, case 5 with keratocone and hydrops presented infectious keratitis by Acanthamoeba and filamentous fungi and received 4 cycles of Cacicol® exhibiting improvement after the first 2. However, the evolution of this patient was complicated by phacolytic glaucoma and finally failed, subsequently undergoing penetrating keratoplasty combined with phacoemulsification. Case 9 was a patient with systemic immunosuppression that received 2 cycles of Cacicol®. After the first one some improvement was observed but during evolution the ulcer worsened, and after 15 days the second cycle was initiated without success. In both cases it appears that Cacicol® had an initial positive effect, and this could have delayed the immediate application of subsequent cycles of Cacicol®. In addition, the severity of the condition and the complexity of patients probably contributed to worsen prognosis and for this reason success was not achieved.</p><p id="par0130" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">A further factor that could influence the healing time with Cacicol® is the toxicity of utilized drugs, such as antibiotics or antivirals.
