Apraclonidine Hcl

Drug Info for apraclonidine hcl

Apraclonidine 0.5% eye drops are used for the short-term treatment of glaucoma (a condition that can cause damage to the optic nerve and vision loss, usually due to increased pressure in the eye) in people who are taking other medications for this condition and still have increased pressure in the eye. Apraclonidine 1% eye drops are used to prevent or reduce increased pressure in the eye during and after certain types of laser eye surgery. Apraclonidine is in a class of medications called alpha-2-adrenergic agonists. It lowers the pressure in the eye by decreasing the amount of fluid produced within the eye.

Iopidine is a prescription medicine used along with other medications to treat glaucoma. It comes in the form of ophthalmic drops. It works by reducing the amount of fluid within the eye resulting in a decrease of the amount of pressure inside the eye. It is used on a short term basis to help delay or prevent the need for eye surgery.
