Trusopt Opthalmic Drops Information

Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops and Dorzolamide at CanadaPharmacyOnline.com

Brand Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops, marketed and distributed by Elvium Life Sciences, is available in many countries worldwide, including Canada.

Generic dorzolamide is sourced from manufacturers that meet applicable regulatory standards. The specific manufacturer of your dispensed medication may vary.

Important Information about Generic Dorzolamide:

Generic dorzolamide contains the same active ingredient as the brand-name Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops and is required to meet the same safety, effectiveness, and quality standards. This means it is designed to work in the same way as Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops. Studies have demonstrated bioequivalence between generic and brand-name dorzolamide, meaning they have comparable absorption rates and overall effects. However, individual responses to any medication can vary. If you have any questions about using generic dorzolamide, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.

For more information about generic drug approval and bioequivalence, you can visit the FDA website: https://www.fda.gov/drugs/buying-using-medicine-safely/generic-drugs

Dosage:

Trusopt and dorzolamide are available as ophthalmic solutions or eye drops, and are commonly available in a strength of 2% packaged in a 5 ml bottle.

Your doctor will determine the appropriate dosage based on the individual needs and medical conditions.

Usage:

Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops (dorzolamide) is a prescription medication used to treat elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma. Elevated intraocular pressure is a condition where the pressure inside the eye is higher than usual. Excessive fluid production, blocked drainage channels, or a combination of both contribute to increased IOP. Lowering IOP is crucial to prevent damage to the optic nerve and preserve vision.

Mechanism of Action:
Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops (dorzolamide) is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. It works by decreasing the production of aqueous humor, the fluid inside the eye. This reduction in fluid production lowers the pressure within the eye.

Use Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops exactly as your doctor prescribes, following the instructions in the official product monograph | Elvium. Consult your doctor for personalized guidance and safe use.

The information below summarizes some, but not all, potential side effects, risks, and interactions. Before taking Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops, it is essential to discuss all potential side effects, risks, and interactions with your doctor or pharmacist.

Side Effects:

The information below is a partial list of side effects; individual reactions can vary. Before starting Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops, it is crucial to discuss potential side effects and risks with your doctor or pharmacist.

Common side effects – The following are examples of some common side effects of Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops; however, other side effects are also possible. Contact your doctor promptly if any side effects persist, worsen, or concern you, or if you experience any other concerning symptoms.
• Bitter taste after instillation
• Blurred vision
• Itching of the eye
• Mild burning, stinging, or discomfort in the eye after instillation
• Tearing

Serious or rare side effects – Stop taking Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops and seek immediate medical attention right away if you experience any of the following:
• Allergic reactions, including angioedema, hives, and trouble breathing
• Eye discharge
• Eye pain
• Signs of kidney stones, such as severe pain in your side or back, bloody urine
• Vision changes

Contraindications:

This is not an exhaustive list of contraindications. It is crucial to discuss all your medical conditions, past and present, and all medications you are taking with your doctor or pharmacist before starting Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops.

Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops should not be used if:
• Are allergic to dorzolamide or any of the inactive ingredients in Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops
• You have a history of sulfa allergy
• You have severe kidney impairment or a history of kidney stones.

Tell your doctor about all of your medical conditions, past and present, before starting Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops. This is crucial because certain conditions can affect whether Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops is right for you. These conditions may include, but are not limited to:
• Acute angle-closure glaucoma
• Liver problems
• Ocular trauma
• Problems with your cornea

Acute Angle-Closure Glaucoma:
The safety and effectiveness of Trusopt Ophthalmic drops have not been established in patients with acute angle-closure glaucoma.

Contact Lenses:
Remove contact lenses before instilling Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops. Wait at least 15 minutes after instilling the drops before reinserting the lenses. This is because soft contact lenses can absorb the preservative in the drops (benzalkonium chloride).

Contamination:
Do not touch the dropper tip to any surface, such as your eye, fingers, or any surface. This is to prevent contamination. Contamination can lead to eye infections and, in severe cases, may result in vision loss.

Ocular Trauma:
Inform your doctor if you have had any form of trauma, such as eye surgery or eye injury. Eye trauma can impact the use of Trusopt.

Sulfa Allergy:
Dorzolamide, the active ingredient in Trusopt, is a sulfonamide. Although administered topically, the body absorbs the medicine systemically. Therefore, you may experience the same types of adverse reactions that are caused by sulfonamides.

Drug Interactions:

Before using Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops, it is essential to discuss all potential risks and interactions with your doctor or pharmacist. For complete information about potential drug interactions, consult the product monograph in Canada at https://pdf.hres.ca/dpd_pm/00036922.PDF and discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider.

Provide your doctor with a complete list of all your medications, including prescriptions, over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops can interact with other medicines, but are not limited to acetazolamide, aspirin, and Zonegran. If you use more than one eye medicine, separate them by at least 10 minutes.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding:

Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, become pregnant, or are planning a pregnancy before using Trusopt Ophthalmic Drops. Limited human data exists on its use during pregnancy; therefore, discuss the potential risks and benefits thoroughly with your doctor.
