Isopto Carpine Details (Brand and Generic)

Canadapharmacyonline.com offers Isopto Carpine eye drops from Canada by Novartis. The generic version is not available. Our customers may also purchase other medications for elevated intra-ocular Pressure, such as Alphagan P.

Dosage

Isopto Carpine is available as eye drops in a 2% strength and packaged in a 15 ml bottle; for more dosage information, please refer to Medscape.

Usage

Isopto Carpine (Pilocarpine) Ophthalmic solution is a prescription medication for treating high eye pressure due to glaucoma and other eye diseases (source). This medication may also be used during eye surgeries to reverse the effects of drugs that enlarge the pupil. Pilocarpine belongs to the class of medicines called cholinergic agonists. This medication works by shrinking the pupil of the eye and allowing more fluid to flow out, which lowers the pressure in the eye. Isopto Carpine helps control your glaucoma but does not cure it.

It is crucial to take this medication exactly as your doctor prescribes and refer to the package insert. Please consult with your doctor for personalized advice.

The common side effects of Isopto Carpine may include burning or stinging of the eye, blurred vision, brow ache, poor vision in dim light, and headache (source). Call your doctor immediately if you have any of the severe side effects such as:
