Description
ZOLICHEK-T Eye Drops 5ml contain two active ingredients: dorzolamide hydrochloride and timolol maleate. These medications are used to reduce elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Dorzolamide works by decreasing the production of fluid within the eye, while timolol reduces the pressure by decreasing the amount of fluid produced.
Dosage/Direction:
- Wash your hands before use.
- Tilt your head back and pull down the lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
- Instill one drop into the affected eye(s) twice daily, typically in the morning and evening.
- Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to prevent contamination.
- Close your eye and apply gentle pressure to the corner of the eye near the nose for about 1 minute to prevent the medication from draining away.
Side Effects:
- Common: Burning or stinging sensation, bitter taste, blurred vision, eye redness.
- Serious: Eye pain, swelling, severe redness, signs of an allergic reaction (rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).
