Get Azopt Online

Azopt (brinzolamide 1% ophthalmic suspension) is prescribed to lower elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in adults with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Uncontrolled high IOP can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss over time.

Azopt inhibits carbonic anhydrase II, an enzyme found in the ciliary processes of the eye. By blocking this enzyme, Azopt reduces the production of aqueous humor, which in turn lowers intraocular pressure.

Shake the bottle well before each use. Instill one drop into the affected eye or eyes three times daily. Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid to create a small pocket, and apply the drop without letting the tip touch your eye or any surface. Wait at least 10 minutes before using any other eye drops.

The most common side effects include temporary blurred vision immediately after instillation, eye discomfort or stinging, a bitter or unusual taste in the mouth, and dry eye. These effects are generally mild and brief. Contact your provider if side effects are severe or persistent.

Azopt contains benzalkonium chloride, a preservative that can be absorbed by soft contact lenses. You should remove soft contact lenses before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. Ask your physician if you have concerns about long-term contact lens use with Azopt.

Azopt is a sulfonamide-derived drug, so it should be used with caution in patients with a history of sulfonamide allergy, significant kidney or liver impairment, or severe corneal disease. Taking oral carbonic anhydrase inhibitors at the same time may increase the risk of side effects, as the effects can be additive. Always disclose all medications and medical history to your provider.
