Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution consists of Brimonidine and Timolol. Brimonidine acts by narrowing the blood vessels that reduce the flow of aqueous humour. Timolol decreases the secretion of aqueous humour by the ciliary body in the eye, thereby causing a decrease in eye pressure. Thus Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution treats open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension.
If you use other eye ointments/drops along with Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution, it is advised to maintain a gap of at least 5-10 minutes after each administration. Also, use eye drops before applying any ointments.

About Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution
Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution is used to treat open-angle glaucoma and (ocular hypertension) high pressure in the eyes. Glaucoma is a common eye condition where the optic nerve, which connects the eye to the brain, becomes damaged. It's usually caused by fluid building up in the front part of the eye, which increases pressure inside the eye.
Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution is a combination of two medicines, namely Brimonidine and Timolol. Brimonidine is a sympathomimetic drug, an agent that mimics the responses of sympathetic nerves. It acts by narrowing the blood vessels that reduce the flow of aqueous humour. Timolol belongs to a class of anti-hypertensive drugs called 'beta-blockers' primarily used to treat increased pressure in the eye. It decreases the secretion of aqueous humour by acting on ciliary body in the eye, thereby causing a decrease in the eye pressure.
Your doctor will advise on how often you take Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution based on your medical condition. Some common side effects of Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution include itching, stinging sensation, foreign body sensation in the eye, burning sensation in eye, redness, blurred vision, tiredness, drowsiness, headache, and dryness in the mouth. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. Although not all of these side effects may occur, they may need medical attention if they do occur.
Try not to stop taking this medicine of your own. You should not use Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution without consulting your doctor if you have an eye infection, allergies, closed-angle glaucoma, thyroid diseases, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), heart, liver and kidney diseases, diabetes, high or low blood pressure, depression, Raynaud's phenomenon (numbness in various parts of the body), and slow heartbeats that make you faint. It is not recommended to use Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution during breastfeeding since Timolol can pass into breast milk. Check with your doctor before using Iotim B Ophthalmic Solution if you are pregnant, currently breastfeeding, or taking any other prescribed or non-prescribed medicines.
