Description
Betoptic is a brand name for the medication betaxolol, which is used to treat high pressure inside the eye due to glaucoma or other eye conditions. Glaucoma is a condition characterized by increased pressure in the eye, which can lead to optic nerve damage and vision loss if left untreated.
Betoptic belongs to a class of medications known as beta-blockers. It works by reducing the production of fluid within the eye, thereby lowering intraocular pressure.
As with any medication, it’s important to inform your healthcare provider about any other medical conditions you have and any other medications you are taking, including over-the-counter and herbal supplements. They can help determine if Betoptic is the right treatment option for you and provide guidance on proper usage and potential interactions.
