What is Alphagan P Eyedrops?

Alphagan P Eyedrops, with the generic name brimonidine tartrate, is an ophthalmic solution indicated to reduce elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) among patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. These eye drops could reduce the risk of nerve damage, vision loss, or blindness.

This selective alpha-2 adrenergic receptor agonist has the capability to lessen aqueous humor production and increase uveoscleral outflow. Clinical studies show that peak ocular hypotension could occur two hours after it has been administered through this drug. This is available in Alphagan P 1.5 mg/mL or 1 mg/mL.

How to use Alphagan P Eyedrops?

To begin, read the medication information leaflet that comes with this eye solution. Never take this medication if you have not fully understood all the information and instructions. If you further medical advice or have any queries on this drug, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Use this ophthalmic solution regularly and with a dosing schedule to get the full benefits. Follow the instructions provided by your doctor. Do not change your Alphagan Eyedrops dosage or stop using this medication even when your symptoms have improved.

If you are prescribed other eye medications at the same time, note that there should be at least five minutes intervals between each eye solution. Eye drops should be administered prior to eye ointments for better absorption.

Step by step guide in using Alphagan eyedrops:

  • Do not forget to wash your hands thoroughly before applying eye medications.
  • Open your Alphagan P solution.
  • In a comfortable position, tilt your head back.
  • Gently pull the lower eyelid of your affected eye down. Hold the bottle above your eye with the dropper just right above the eyelid.
  • Look up and then squeeze the bottle carefully to release a drop.
  • Slowly close your eyes and tip your head down. Do not open your eyes, squint, or blink for a minute. Press the inner corner of your eye to prevent the solution from draining.
