Brivizac Eye Drop

Brivizac Eye Drop is a prescription eye drop containing brinzolamide and brimonidine, supplied by Ajanta Pharma, India in a strip/box of 10 bottles. The exact amount per bottle is the labeled strength on the pack, and this combination medicine is used to lower high pressure inside the eye. It belongs to the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor plus alpha-2 adrenergic agonist class and is used for glaucoma and ocular hypertension. By reducing fluid buildup in the eye, Brivizac Eye Drop helps protect the optic nerve from pressure-related damage.

How it works: Brinzolamide lowers eye pressure by reducing the amount of fluid the eye makes. Brimonidine also lowers pressure by decreasing fluid production and helping fluid drain better, and the eye-drop form delivers both medicines directly to the eye.

Brivizac Eye Drop is a standard prescription eye-drop strength meant for patients whose eye doctor has decided that combination treatment is appropriate. Because it is an eye drop, it starts working locally in the eye rather than as a pill, and it may be chosen when a single medicine is not enough to control eye pressure. Since there are no other strengths or forms of this brand listed here, this product should be used exactly as prescribed and not substituted with a different dose or dosage form without medical advice.

• Glaucoma
• Ocular hypertension
• Lowering raised eye pressure
• Helping protect the optic nerve
• Combination treatment when one medicine is not enough

• Wash your hands before using Brivizac Eye Drop.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the eye.
• Do not let the dropper tip touch your eye, fingers, or any surface.
• After the drop, close your eye gently and press the inner corner of the eye for 1 to 2 minutes if your doctor has advised it.
• If you use other eye medicines, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes between products unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Do not wear contact lenses while using the drops unless your prescriber says they are safe for you; preservatives may irritate the eye.

The labeled dose in Brivizac Eye Drop is the exact bottle strength of brinzolamide plus brimonidine intended for eye use, not an oral dose. It is commonly used as directed by the eye specialist, often 1 drop in the affected eye(s) twice daily, but the exact schedule depends on the doctor’s plan and the patient’s eye pressure response. There is no separate maximum daily dose to self-set, because the prescriber determines how often it should be used and whether another pressure-lowering medicine is needed.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.
