Cosopt Eye Drop5Ml
Cosopt Eye Drop5Ml is a medication used to treat elevated intraocular pressure and is classified as an ocular hypotensive agent. It contains a combination of two active substances, Dorzolamide and Timolol Maleate, which work together to reduce pressure inside the eye.
Dorzolamide works by inhibiting the enzyme carbonic anhydrase, thereby reducing the production of fluid within the eye. Meanwhile, Timolol reduces the amount of fluid produced in the eye, helping to lower pressure. This effective combination contributes to improving the condition of patients suffering from glaucoma and reduces the risk of vision loss. Cosopt is commonly used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan for glaucoma patients.
