Benozol BR Sterile Ophthalmic Suspension

Brinzolamide + Brimonidine is prescribed to reduce elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

This combination works by reducing the formation of aqueous humour, the fluid inside the eye, which helps lower increased eye pressure and protects vision.

Continue using this medicine exactly for the duration prescribed by your doctor. If eye irritation develops or becomes worse, consult your healthcare provider promptly.

Since this medication may cause temporary blurred or altered vision, avoid driving or operating machinery until your eyesight returns to normal.

Contact lenses should not be worn during use. Remove lenses before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them.

Dry mouth may occur as a side effect. Staying well hydrated, limiting caffeine, avoiding smoking and alcohol-based mouthwashes, and chewing sugar-free gum or candy may help relieve this symptom.

Brinzolamide + Brimonidine can be used alongside other prescribed eye medications; however, maintain a 5–10 minute interval between different eye drops to prevent dilution.

Common side effects include blurred vision, eye redness, discomfort, drowsiness, and an unpleasant taste. These effects are usually mild and temporary. If they persist or worsen, seek medical advice.

This medication is available only with a prescription and contains the active ingredients brinzolamide and brimonidine, specifically formulated to manage increased eye pressure.

It should not be used by individuals who are allergic to its components, those taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) or certain antidepressants, or patients with severe kidney disease or metabolic acidosis. Its safety in individuals under 18 years of age has not been established. Inform your doctor if you have liver disease, narrow-angle glaucoma, corneal disorders, dry eyes, heart disease, depression, or circulatory problems before starting treatment.

For application, lie down or tilt your head back, gently pull down the lower eyelid to form a pocket, and instill the prescribed number of drops. Keep your eyes closed for 1–2 minutes after administration.

Use during pregnancy or breastfeeding is generally not recommended unless clearly advised by a doctor. Always discuss potential risks and benefits with your healthcare provider before use.
