Iopidine eye drops are made up of an ophthalmic glaucoma agent called apraclonidine hydrochloride. We carry the brand choice of this medication in 0.50%.

Iopidine eye drops are used along with other medications for a short-term treatment of glaucoma to assist a delay or prevention of vision loss or the need for eye surgery. Glaucoma is a serious condition where the pressure inside the eye is high. When high pressure of the eye goes untreated for too long, it can be too severe for medications to treat and may need surgical attention to treat. If it is left untreated for even longer, it can affect the optic nerves, which is what allows your brain to receive images and is the reason you are able to see things. When the optic nerves become damaged, you will go blind, a consequence that cannot be undone.

Likewise with high blood pressure in the body, high pressure in the eye is caused when there is too much fluid. Iopidine is effective in treating high pressure in the eye and preventing the risks that follow because of its power to reduce the amount of fluid in the eye causing the high pressure.

Only take this medication the way that your doctor has directed you too. Taking the incorrect dose can lead to unwanted side effects, ineffectiveness, or adverse interactions.

Apply 1 or 2 drops of Iopidine into the affected eye(s) 3 times per day, as directed by your doctor.
