Brimodin B Eye Drop is a combination medicine containing Brinzolamide (1% w/v) and Brimonidine (0.2% w/v) as the active compound. This eye drop helps to manage open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension by reducing pressure inside your eyes which can damage the optic nerve if left untreated.
Clinical Uses

How It Works
Brinzolamide and brimonidine work together to lower eye pressure. Brinzolamide reduces the production of aqueous humour which is the clear fluid inside your eye. Brimonidine also reduces the fluid production and helps improve its drainage. This lowers pressure inside your eyes and helps protect the optic nerve from damage and preserve vision.
