Description
Combigan Eye Drops 5ml is a highly effective ophthalmic solution prescribed for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients suffering from open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. This dual-action medication contains a synergistic combination of two active ingredients: Brimonidine Tartrate 0.2%, an alpha-2 adrenergic receptor agonist, and Timolol Maleate 0.5%, a non-selective beta-blocker. Together, these components work to lower eye pressure by both decreasing the production of aqueous humor (the fluid inside the eye) and increasing the drainage of this fluid from the eye. By effectively controlling IOP, Combigan Eye Drops help to prevent further damage to the optic nerve and preserve vision, which is crucial in managing progressive eye conditions like glaucoma. This medication is typically used when monotherapy with a beta-blocker alone is insufficient to achieve the desired pressure reduction. It is for topical ocular use only and requires a prescription.
