Acetazolamide

Uses

Acetazolamide is used in the treatment of glaucoma.

How it Works

How Acetazolamide works Acetazolamide is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. It functions in glaucoma by reducing the production of aqueous humor (the fluid in the eye), thereby lowering elevated intraocular pressure.

Expert Advice

  • Acetazolamide helps lower high pressure in the eye and reduces the risk of vision loss.
  • For best results, instill one drop 2-3 times daily in the affected eye(s).
  • Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute immediately after instilling the drop to minimize the risk of side effects.
  • Do not touch the tip of the dropper to any surface or to your eye to avoid contaminating the eye drops.
  • Remove contact lenses before using Acetazolamide and wait at least 15 minutes before re-inserting them.
  • When applying multiple eye medications, wait for at least 5-15 minutes before administering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution of the medicine.
