nefopam and acute angle closure glaucoma

[Sickofpain140]

Hello, I am a health care worker and I have just been diagnosed with arthritis in my hips. My gp has just prescribed nefopam and since starting them I have not been able to sleep. I have acute glaucoma and I am worried that taking this medication might damage my eyesight further. Has anyone else had any experience with nefopam and glaucoma

Hello there, I wonder if you are posting in the correct forum for this issue. This is the Liver Trust one so focussed purely on liver related issues rather than yours which seems to be more pain related and/or glaucoma related so you may get more appropriate answers on forums such as Pain Concern - healthunlocked.com/painconcern or Glaucoma UK - healthunlocked.com/glaucoma-uk

I hope you get answers and help soon.
