ALPHAGAN P EYE DROPS 0.15% 5ML — MADE IN USA — FREE SHIPPING

Product description

Alphagan P eye drops - is an ophthalmic preparation used in the treatment of open-angle glaucoma (and a decrease in increased intraocular pressure caused by other causes), refers to selective alpha-adrenomimetics.

Brimonidine - selective alpha2-adrenomimetic, which has a stimulating effect on alpha2-adrenergic receptors. When using 0.15% drops in the preparation form, the maximum decrease in intraocular pressure (IOP) is achieved after 2 hours. The hypotensive effect of brimonidine is provided by reducing the formation and increasing the outflow of intraocular fluid along the uveoscleral pathway.

Indications:

Open angle glaucoma. Increased eye pressure (both monotherapy and in combination with other preparations that reduce IOP).

Contraindications:

• hypersensitivity to brimonidine and other components of the preparation;
• simultaneous therapy with MAO inhibitors;

• the period of lactation.

From the skin and subcutaneous fat: often - a rash.

Infectious and parasitic diseases: often - influenza-like syndrome, infectious disease (chills and respiratory infection), rhinitis, sinusitis, incl. infectious.

Laboratory indicators: often - hypercholesterolemia.

Others: often - general allergic reactions, asthenia, fatigue; infrequently - a perversion of taste.

Children noted: apnea, bradycardia, lowering blood pressure, hypothermia, muscle hypotension.

In the postmarketing period, additional reports of the following side effects were received:

From the side of the organ of vision: the frequency is unknown - iritis, dry keratoconjunctivitis, miosis;

From the side of the central nervous system: depression;

From the cardiovascular system: bradycardia, tachycardia.

From the digestive tract: nausea.

From the skin and subcutaneous fat: local skin reactions (erythema, itchy eyelids, face swelling, rash and vasodilation of the vessels of the skin of the eyelids and face).

Suggested Use:

Locally. In the conjunctival sac of the affected eye, 1 drop 3 times a day with an interval between administrations of about 8 hours.

Alfagan P can be used with other ophthalmic preparations to reduce IOP. If you use more than 2 preparations, then you need to do a 5-minute break between the installations.
