How does Azopt (brinzolamide ophthalmic) eye drop work?
Brinzolamide is an inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase that reduces the formation of aqueous humor in the eyes. It slowdowns the formation of bicarbonate ions that subsequently reduces sodium and fluid transport. Thereby, it lowers the amount of fluid in the eye and decreases eye pressure.
How to use Azopt Eye drop?
AZOPT brinzolamide ophthalmic contains 10mg brinzolamide per ml of the solution. It is a white powder that is insoluble in water and forms an essential component of the suspension. Apply the medicine to the affected eye(s). Typically, one drop three times every day or as instructed by your health care provider. Shake the bottle well before using it. To use eye drops, wash your hands. Would you please not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface to prevent contamination? Wait 15 minutes following each dose before placing your lenses straight in. Replace the dropper cap after each use tightly.
If you're using another sort of eye medication (e.g., drops or ointments), wait at least 10 minutes before applying other drugs. Use eye drops before eye ointments to permit the eye drops to enter the eye. It would be best if you use it regularly to get the most benefit out of it. Remember to use it at the very same time every day. It's crucial to keep on using brinzolamide even if you are feeling good.
