How Brivex Products work
Brinzolamide + Brimonidine is a combination of two medicines: Brinzolamide + Brimonidine1 and Brinzolamide + Brimonidine2. Brinzolamide + Brimonidine1 is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor while Brinzolamide + Brimonidine2 is a sympathomimetic. They work by decreasing the production of aqueous humour (fluid in the eye), thereby lowering the increased eye pressure.

Q. What is Brivex Eye Drop BAK Free used for?

Q. Who should not use Brivex Eye Drop BAK Free?
People should not use Brivex Eye Drop BAK Free if they are allergic to any of its ingredients, have had a serious reaction to sulfonamide medicines, or if the patient is a newborn or infant under two years of age.
Q. Can Brivex Eye Drop BAK Free cause serious allergic reactions?
Although rare, but serious allergic reactions like Stevens‑Johnson syndrome, severe skin rashes, or blood problems can occur. If you develop a severe rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing, stop the drops immediately and seek emergency help.
Q. Can Brivex Eye Drop BAK Free damage the cornea?
Yes, in people with not enough healthy cells on the inner surface of your cornea (low corneal endothelial cell counts), there is a risk of corneal swelling (corneal edema). Your doctor may check your eyes before starting treatment if you are at risk.
Q. Can Brivex Eye Drop BAK Free be used for angle‑closure glaucoma?
No, Brivex Eye Drop BAK Free has not been studied for acute angle‑closure glaucoma (increased eye pressure due to blockage in drainage pathways of your eye), and should not be relied on as the only treatment for that condition.
