Usage

Alphagan Z (Brimonidine) is a prescription medication used to treat open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension (source). The main active ingredient, Brimonidine, belongs to a class of drugs called alpha adrenergic agonists. It lowers intraocular pressure by reducing aqueous humor production and increasing uveoscleral outflow. Alphagan Z contains a different preservative called Purite (source). This preservative is generally considered less irritating to the eye than benzalkonium chloride, used in the original Alphagan formulation. Alphagan Z is not recommended for children under two due to the risk of severe breathing problems (source).

Side Effects

Common side effects of Alphagan Z ophthalmic solution may include blurred vision, dry mouth, drowsiness or tiredness, headache, itching or irritation, and mild eye redness (source).

Stop using Alphagan Z and seek medical help immediately if you experience allergic reactions (difficulty breathing, facial swelling, hives) or severe eye problems (burning, pain, swelling, discharge from the eyes, vision changes).

The above information is a summary and may not contain all the side effects of this medication. Please visit MedlinePlus.gov for a complete list of side effects. Please note that individual reactions may vary, and not everyone will experience all the adverse reactions. If you still have questions about side effects, we suggest further conversations with your doctor.

The following are several precautions and interactions associated with using Alphagan Z; please check out Abbvie.ca for a comprehensive list: you should not use Alphagan Z eye drops if allergic to Brimonidine or any ingredients in the medication.

If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using Alphagan Z. Wait 15 minutes after using the drops before putting them back in.

Inform your doctor or pharmacist about all your medications, including prescription, OTC, herbal supplements, and vitamins, especially antidepressants and heart or blood pressure medications. There may be a drug interaction between Brimonidine and other medications.
