Side Effects Pt 2
My question now is, 4 months after surgery he is still using steroid drops 4 times a day, although they say that might be what is driving the pressure up, they talked about weaning him off but nothing definite was decided, what is the point of
acetazolamide
if dexamethasone is still being administered

Tinnitus following an adverse reaction to medication- and only alcohol helps!
It started about six months ago after an intensive course of
Acetazolamide
tablets (prescribed following a bad reaction to laser surgery intended to prevent glaucoma).

Acetazolamide 250mg
has anyone had difficulty getting
Acetazolamide
slow release 250mg? It used to be Diamox, now just the generic one available. I am prescribed it as I cannot anymore tolerate glaucoma drops.

Upcoming Trabeculectomy
He's also prescribed me
Acetazolamide
leading up to the surgery. I am a little anxious as he was trying to avoid invasive surgery 9 months ago but now its the only option. I've discussed the upcoming surgery in depth with my consultant and read the literature.

Twitchy eye and eye ache
I am currently on lots of eye drops and
Acetazolamide
tablets to keep my pressure down, it was checked last week and it was down to 14 in each eye. I am now worried it’s too low…. I have obviously now become concerned about everything to do with my eyes….

Referral to another hospital
The downside of the meds are the pilocarpine give my a thick head and achy eyes, the
Acetazolamide
makes me tired (I was previously on the slow release version but you can’t get hold of this at the moment), I also get the tingly hands, face and legs.

Iopidine after SLT
I read that after having this you can have a pressure spike and was really worried because after my cataract surgery the pressure went from 20 to34 and I had to take
Acetazolamide
for two weeks which made me quite ill.

Advice please - post cataract surgery
I'm sort of worn out with it all, not least as I have had a pretty traumatic time of it with uncontrolled pressures, plus 3 x severe allergic reactions to drops, living with se of
acetazolamide
, then cancelled surgeries etc.

Acetazolamide
I have been prescribed
Acetazolamide
for Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension. I took it once and it made me feel so tingly everywhere all day and I hated it! It was an awful feeling. The doctors says to take a smaller dose but I’m so scared of feeling that again!
