glaucoma eye drops

[MadMorris]

hi. I’ve been prescribed Azopt drops twice a day

with monopost at night. I’m having wierd

dreams . Could it be the drops? Does

anyone else have these side effects?

Hi there. It could be the drops causing the weird dreams as you suggest. It is more likely to be Azopt as I have checked both patient information leaflets and it is listed there as a side effect for this drop.

thank you ! I put my fingers in the corner of

my eyes to stop the drops travelling down my

throat . I would have thought this would help.

Maybe that has nothing to do with the

wierd dream side effect. There are so many

side effects on the leaflet .

I have been having weird dreams and I use Monopost drops. However, I also take a low dose of atorvastatin and these can also cause weird dreams. I don’t know if either are the cause.
