AZOPT 10 MG – 1 BOTTLE OF 5ML

Description

AZOPT 10 MG EYE DROPS contain 10 mg/ml of brinzolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor used to treat elevated intraocular pressure associated with glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Brinzolamide works by reducing the production of aqueous humor in the eye, thereby lowering intraocular pressure. This helps prevent damage to the optic nerve and supports long-term eye health. AZOPT 10 MG EYE DROPS offer a non-steroidal approach to managing intraocular pressure, providing an effective alternative for those who need to control their eye pressure.

Usage Instructions
Dosage: Instill 1 drop of AZOPT 10 MG EYE DROPS into the affected eye(s) twice daily, or as directed by your healthcare provider.
Application: Tilt your head back slightly, gently pull down the lower eyelid, and place the dropper above the eye. Squeeze the bottle to release the drop, then close your eye for a moment to allow the solution to spread evenly.
Consistency: Use AZOPT 10 MG EYE DROPS regularly as prescribed. Do not stop using them without consulting your healthcare provider.

Medicinal Advantages
AZOPT 10 MG EYE DROPS offer several benefits in managing glaucoma and ocular hypertension:
Effective IOP Reduction: Helps to lower intraocular pressure, which is crucial in managing glaucoma.
Non-Steroidal Treatment: Provides a non-steroidal option for patients needing pressure control.
Long-Term Eye Health: Aids in preventing optic nerve damage associated with high intraocular pressure.

Mechanism of Action
AZOPT 10 MG EYE DROPS work by:
Inhibiting Carbonic Anhydrase: Brinzolamide inhibits the enzyme carbonic anhydrase in the ciliary body of the eye, which decreases the production of aqueous humor.
Reducing Intraocular Pressure: By reducing aqueous humor production, the drops effectively lower intraocular pressure, helping to manage and control glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

Off-Label Uses
AZOPT 10 MG EYE DROPS are primarily prescribed for managing intraocular pressure in glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Off-label uses should be discussed with a healthcare provider to ensure safety and effectiveness.
