Whats That
Alphagan Z Opthalmic Solution 5 ml is used to lower the intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Glaucoma is an eye disease that causes damage to the optic nerve and results in reduced vision. Ocular hypertension is increased pressure in the eye due to poor drainage of aqueous humour (fluid in the eye that maintains normal pressure by its continuous flow).
Alphagan Z Opthalmic Solution 5 ml contains Brimonidine tartrate (alpha-2 adrenergic receptor agonists) and Stabilized oxychloro complex (preservative). Brimonidine tartrate decreases the production of aqueous humour. Thus, it helps lower the increased pressure in the eye. Stabilized oxychloro complex acts as a preservative.
You are advised to use Alphagan Z Opthalmic Solution 5 ml for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as blurred vision, eye redness, discomfort, drowsiness and dry mouth. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Wash your hands regularly. Avoid touching the eyes with dirty hands.
Include fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet.
Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption.
Avoid intake of baked foods such as cakes, cookies, doughnuts or fried items such as French fries and stick margarine as these foods may worsen glaucoma and damage the optic nerve.
Cut down your coffee intake as it may increase pressure in the eye. Replace coffee with green tea.
Avoid exercises such as any position where the head is lower than the body, like an inverted yoga pose, as it may increase pressure in the eye. Doing selective exercises is advised for glaucoma patients.
Glaucoma: It is an eye condition that causes damage to the optic nerve (essential for good vision) due to abnormally increased pressure in the eye. If it is not treated in time, it may cause blindness.
Ocular hypertension: It is a condition caused by poor drainage of aqueous humour (fluid in the eye that maintains normal pressure by its continuous flow). This leads to a build-up of excess fluid in the eye, resulting in increased pressure inside the eye without any damage to the optic nerve. If ocular hypertension is not controlled, it may lead to glaucoma.
