Frequently asked questions about Brinzolamide
Q. What is the right way to use Bridic 1% Eye Drop?
Always wash your hands before (and after) using Bridic 1% Eye Drop. This prevents you from passing the infection from one eye to the other. Remove the cap just before using your medicine and replace it as soon as you have finished. Avoid touching the nozzle of the bottle with your fingers. Tilt your head back and gently pull down your lower eyelid with a clean finger. Hold the bottle over the eye and allow a single drop to fall into the space between your lower lid and your eye. Close your eye and gently press your finger over the inside corner of your eye (over the eyelid) for about a minute. This helps prevent the drop from draining out of the eye. Repeat in your other eye if your doctor has told you to do this.
Q. How many times should I use Bridic 1% Eye Drop in a day?
Ideally, you should use the drops regularly, three times a day, or as prescribed by your doctor.
