Taking Ibuprofen whilst on Cosopt eye drops
Good morning, I am suffering from bad lower backache, I wanted to check if I am ok to take Ibuporfen whilst taking
Cosopt
eye drops twice a day. I have looked online etc but cannot find anything. I have taken Paracetamol but it’s just not shifting. Many thanks

Beta blockers and Cosopt
Will the combination reduce the pressure more or less than if I were on
Cosopt
alone? ObviousIy, the intuitive answer is greater pressure reduction but does anyone know for sure ?

Close angle glaucoma progressed
Dr gave me brimonidine, I also use
cosopt
and xalatan on that eye. I had dry eyes also and in Montenegro we don’t have PF drops for glaucoma. Dr told me if pressure don’t came down we will repeat iridiotomy. If that fail to, we will do lens extraction.

Travelling with Eye Drops
I use
Cosopt
and Lumigan eye drops in single dose containers. I am due to fly to France in September and am a little confused as to how these are allowed on the plane, especially in my hand luggage. I have googled this but keep getting conflicting information.

How far apart should I take Cosopt?
My consultant prescribed me
Cosopt
1 drop x twice daily plus one drop Monopost at night. It seems I should take the Monopost shortly before going to bed, but I have never been given advice about when to take
Cosopt
.

Cosopt preservative free and Monopost shortage?
Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a nationwide shortage of
Cosopt
preservative free eye drops and if so why? My GP’s surgery is having difficulty getting hold of them and the Monopost. I knew the Monopost was a problem but the
Cosopt
is new. Many thanks

How long are cosopt ( timolol and dorzolamide) eye drops effective for after each application?
The optometrist said she always advises that the second dose of
cosopt
should be at tea time because of this possible effect. However she didn’t know what the actual duration of effective action of
cosopt
was so it got me wondering.

Rainbows in the morning
For the last 4 months I have been taking
Cosopt
twice a day in each eye, I have been monitoring the eye pressure at my local opticians during this time and it has been taken at 12pm and is always around 15.

Help please is it possible in a month for the angle to change from narrow to wide open angles? This just doesn’t make sense to me.
A week later I was seeing rainbows around down lights in the morning in my left eye, I had a pressure check which was 30, so back on
Cosopt
for my left eye only twice a day, I have been told to stop the Pilocarpine 1-2 weeks before by next appointment.

High IOP after removal of ICL lens. Dilemma…
Cosopt
, alphagan, glanatec & eybelis, but the pressure still ups and down. The pressure will still be around 20-30 range even without any eye drops (I tried it for few days recently), so I stopped the drops. During daytime the pressure will be around 25 plus minus.
