Indications

Alphagan is a medication used to treat open-angle glaucoma or high fluid pressure in the eye.

Alphagan contains the active ingredient brimonidine tartrate, which is an alpha-2-adrenergic receptor agonist that works by reducing the production of aqueous humour (the fluid inside the eye) and increasing its outflow. This leads to a reduction in intraocular pressure and a decreased risk of vision loss.

Use and Dosage

To apply eye drops, wash your hands first. To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface.

If you are wearing contact lenses, remove them before using this medication. After applying this medication, wait at least 15 minutes before putting in your contact lens.

Tilt your head back, look upward and pull down the lower eyelid to make a pouch. Hold the dropper directly over your eye and insert one drop, usually three times daily, or as directed by your doctor. Look downward and gently close your eyes for 1 to 2 minutes. Place one finger at the corner of your eye (near the nose) and apply gentle pressure. Try not to blink and do not rub your eye. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Repeat these steps for your other eye if so, directed by your doctor.

Do not rinse the dropper. Replace the dropper cap after each use.

If you are using another kind of eye medication (such as drops or ointments), wait at least 5 minutes before applying the other medications. Use eye drops before eye ointments to allow the eye drops to enter the eye.

Keep using this medication even if you feel well. Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. Remember to use it at the same time each day. Do not stop using this medication without consulting your doctor.

Inform your doctor if your condition worsens.
