Brinzemic-B Eye Drop is a combination of two medicines: Brinzolamide and Brimonidine. Brinzolamide is an alpha-2 adrenergic receptor agonist while Brimonidine is a sympathomimetic. They work by decreasing the production of aqueous humour (fluid in the eye) thereby lowering the increased eye pressure.

Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute immediately after instilling the drop. Do not touch the tip of the dropper to any surface or to your eye to avoid contaminating the eye drops. Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution. It may cause temporary burning or itching sensation in the eye. Inform your doctor if this does not go away. Make sure to use within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
