Product Description

Glaucoma is a painful disease that can lead to loss of vision for your pet. Ask your veterinarian about Dorzolamide Hydrochloride Ophthalmic Solution. It is indicated for use in the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma. Dorzolamide HCL also lowers the risk of nerve damage and loss of vision, something every pet owner wants.

1 drop three times a day, adjusting dosage based on your pets response to the therapy.

Dorzolamide ophthalmic might sting the eye, so be careful when administering. It can also cause a sensitivity to light.

Side Effects & Warnings

Dorzolamide ophthalmic should be used cautiously in pregnant or nursing pets, and in pets with liver and/or kidney disease. Do not give dorzolamide ophthalmic to pets with an allergy to sulfonamides, furosemide, thiazide diuretics, diabetes medicines, or carbonic anhydrase inhibitor-type glaucoma medication.

If any side effects occur (swelling, hives, difficulty breathing), stop using Dorzolamide HCl on your pet and contact your veterinarian. Do not touch the dropper to any surface, including the eyes and hands. If it becomes contaminated, it could cause an infection in the eye.
