What is Combigan?

Combigan is a brand-name prescription medication used to manage open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension. These conditions are often characterized by high pressure in the eyes, which can cause damage to the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. 

Combigan eye drops contain a combination of two drugs: brimonidine tartrate, an alpha agonist, and timolol, a beta-blocker. Combigan works by reducing the amount of fluid that the eye produces and helping the fluid drain from the eye. This action helps lower the pressure within the eye.

What doses of Combigan are available?

Combigan is available in a 0.2%/0.5% strength ophthalmic solution. The solution contains 2 mg/mL of brimonidine tartrate and 5 mg/mL of timolol maleate. The usual dosage is one drop in the affected eye(s) twice daily. Always follow the instructions for use given by your doctor or healthcare provider.

What are the side effects of Combigan?

Combigan may cause side effects. The most common side effects of Combigan include eyelid swelling and itching, burning, or stinging of the eyes after administration. However, these side effects are usually temporary. Other side effects may include blurred vision, changes in taste, dry mouth, drowsiness, and headaches. Serious side effects can occur with the use of Combigan and may include slow or irregular heartbeats, heart failure, muscle weakness, or severe allergic reactions.

This is not a complete list of side effects, and others may occur. If you experience any severe side effects, seek immediate medical attention. As always, you should consult a healthcare provider for any potential precautions or warnings related to your medications.

What are common dosages of Combigan?

Is Combigan good for glaucoma?

Yes, Combigan is an effective medication for the treatment of certain types of glaucoma, specifically open-angle glaucoma, and ocular hypertension. It works by reducing the amount of fluid in the eyes and lowering eye pressure.

Does Combigan lower eye pressure?

Yes, Combigan effectively lowers intraocular pressure, which is beneficial for patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Brimonidine is an alpha-2 adrenergic agonist, which works by both decreasing the production of aqueous humor (the clear fluid in the front of the eye) and increasing the drainage of this fluid. Timolol is a non-selective beta-adrenergic antagonist (or beta-blocker), which reduces the production of aqueous humor.

What is the difference between timolol and Combigan?

While timolol is one of the active ingredients in Combigan, Combigan itself is a combination of two active ingredients: timolol and brimonidine tartrate. Both ingredients work together to reduce intraocular pressure, with timolol decreasing the amount of fluid the eye produces and brimonidine helping to drain the fluid from the eye.
