ocular hypertension/fatigue

BACKGROUND In treating patients with ocular hypertension or primary open-angle glaucoma, if a single agent cannot successfully control the pressure, additional medications may be prescribed. The cost of treatment may become expensive, especially with multiple drug therapy. Thus, prescribing

BACKGROUND Fixed-combination intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering medications simplify treatment regimens for patients requiring 2 ocular hypotensive agents to maintain sufficiently low IOP. The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of fixed-combination brinzolamide 1%/brimonidine

The main first-line treatment strategy for glaucoma is to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) by topical ocular hypotensive medications, but many patients require multiple medications for adequate IOP control. Fixed-combination therapies provide several benefits, including simplified treatment

OBJECTIVE The main purpose of our study was to assess the systemic safety of brimonidine tartrate 0.2%, an alpha 2 highly selective agonist in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension METHODS Brimonidine was administered alone or in combination in 128 patients suffering from glaucoma or ocular

BACKGROUND Brimonidine tartrate is a relatively selective alpha2-agonist that effectively reduces mean intraocular pressure (IOP) and the incidence of IOP spikes after laser trabeculoplasty. The authors were interested in evaluating the dose response of brimonidine when applied topically for a
