Nepafenac, sold under the brand name Nevanac among others, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to treat pain and inflammation associated with cataract surgery. It is used as an eye drop.

Common side effects include irritation of the eye. Other side effects may include keratitis and hyphema. It works by inhibiting COX-1 and COX-2 and therefore decreasing prostaglandins.

Nepafenac was approved for medical use in the United States in 2005 and Europe in 2007. In the United Kingdom a bottle costs the NHS about £15 as of 2021. In the United States this amount costs about 290 USD.
