AZOPT DROPS 5 ML

How AZOPT DROPS 5 ML Works

• AZOPT DROPS 5 ML belongs to a class of medications known as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. These inhibitors play a crucial role in reducing the production of aqueous humor within the eye. Aqueous humor is the clear fluid that fills the space between the lens and the cornea, maintaining the eye's internal pressure and providing nutrients.
• In individuals with glaucoma or ocular hypertension, the production of aqueous humor may be excessive, leading to increased intraocular pressure (IOP). Elevated IOP can damage the optic nerve, potentially causing vision loss. AZOPT DROPS 5 ML works by specifically targeting and inhibiting carbonic anhydrase, an enzyme essential for the formation of aqueous humor.
• By inhibiting carbonic anhydrase, AZOPT DROPS 5 ML effectively reduces the amount of aqueous humor produced, which in turn lowers the IOP. This reduction in pressure helps to protect the optic nerve from further damage and preserve vision. The medication provides a targeted approach to managing elevated eye pressure associated with glaucoma and ocular hypertension, offering a valuable therapeutic option for patients.
• In essence, AZOPT DROPS 5 ML acts like a regulator, carefully controlling the production of fluid within the eye to maintain a healthy pressure balance and safeguard vision. Its mechanism of action is centered around the precise inhibition of a key enzyme involved in fluid production, making it an effective treatment for managing elevated eye pressure.
• Consult your doctor for proper usage and dosage.

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them.

• Blurred vision
• Bitter taste

• Keep AZOPT DROPS 5ML away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store AZOPT DROPS 5ML at room temperature.

• AZOPT DROPS 5 ML helps to lower elevated pressure within the eye, effectively reducing the risk of potential vision loss. This medication is designed to manage intraocular pressure and protect your eyesight.
• For optimal results, instill one drop into the affected eye(s) two to three times daily, or as directed by your healthcare provider. Consistency in application is crucial for maintaining stable eye pressure.
• Immediately after applying the drop, gently press on the inner corner of your eye (near the nose) for approximately one minute. This simple technique minimizes the possibility of systemic side effects by reducing the drainage of the medication into your bloodstream.
• To prevent contamination, avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including your eye or surrounding areas. Contaminated eye drops can lead to eye infections.
• If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using AZOPT DROPS 5 ML. Wait at least 15 minutes after applying the drops before reinserting your lenses. This prevents the medication from interacting with the lens material.
• If you are using multiple eye medications, allow a minimum of 5 to 15 minutes between applying each medication to the same eye. This prevents dilution and ensures each medication has the opportunity to work effectively. Apply AZOPT DROPS 5 ML as directed by your doctor for best outcomes.
