  • you are using another beta-blocker eye drop (eg, betaxolol)

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Some medical conditions may interact with Dorzolamide/Timolol Drops. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:


  • if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding

  • if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement

  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances

  • if you have had a severe allergic reaction (eg, severe rash, hives, difficulty breathing, dizziness) to any other sulfonamide medicine such as acetazolamide, celecoxib, certain diuretics (eg, hydrochlorothiazide), glyburide, probenecid, sulfamethoxazole, valdecoxib, or zonisamide

  • if you have a history of lung or breathing problems (eg, bronchitis, COPD, emphysema), diabetes, low blood sugar, heart problems, liver or kidney problems, certain muscle problems (eg, myasthenia gravis), blood vessel problems, or an overactive thyroid

  • if you have narrow-angle glaucoma, double vision, a drooping eyelid, or other eye problems

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Dorzolamide/Timolol Drops. Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

  • Clonidine because increased blood pressure may occur

  • Insulin or oral antidiabetics (eg, glyburide, repaglinide) because the risk of low blood sugar (eg, hunger, shakiness or weakness, dizziness, headache, sweating) or slow heart rate may be increased. Dorzolamide/Timolol Drops may also hide certain signs of low blood sugar

  • Salicylates (eg, aspirin) because the risk of their side effects may be increased or their effectiveness may be decreased by Dorzolamide/Timolol Drops

  • Alpha-blockers (eg, alfuzosin, prazosin), oral beta-blockers (eg, propranolol), other beta-blocker eye drops (eg, betaxolol), or oral carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (eg, acetazolamide) because the risk of their side effects may be increased by Dorzolamide/Timolol Drops

  • Certain sympathomimetics (eg, albuterol, salmeterol), epinephrine, or theophylline because their effectiveness may be decreased by Dorzolamide/Timolol Drops

This may not be a complete list of all interactions that may occur. Ask your health care provider if Dorzolamide/Timolol Drops may interact with other medicine that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.


How to use Dorzolamide/Timolol Drops:

Brompheniramine and Pseudoephedrine Drops





Dosage Form: liquid
Brompheniramine Maleate 1 mg Pseudoephedrine HCl 7.5 mg Drops

Brompheniramine and Pseudoephedrine Drops Description


Brompheniramine Maleate 1 mg and Pseudoephedrine HCl 7.5 mg Drops is an antihistaminic drop for oral administration containing the following amounts of active ingredients in each 1 mL dropperful:

Brompheniramine Maleate, USP …….........................…………………. 1 mg

Pseudoephedrine HCl …….........................…….............……………. 7.5 mg


Inactive Ingredients: Citric Acid, Cotton Candy Flavor, Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, Purified Water, Saccharin Sodium, Sodium Benzoate, Sorbitol, and Xanthan Gum.


Brompheniramine Maleate is an antihistamine having the chemical name 2-pyridinepropanamine, -[4-bromophenyl)-N,N-dimethyl-,(±)-,[Z]-2-butenedioate (1:1) with the following chemical structure:




Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride is a nasal decongestant with the chemical name, Benzenemethanol,-[1-(methylamino)ethyl]-,[S-(R*,R*)],hydrochloride. Its structure is as follows:



Brompheniramine and Pseudoephedrine Drops - Clinical Pharmacology


Brompheniramine Maleate

Brompheniramine Maleate is a histamine antagonist, specifically an H1-receptor-blocking agent belonging to the alkylamine class of antihistamines. Antihistamines appear to compete with histamine for receptor sites on effector cells. Brompheniramine also has anticholinergic (drying) and sedative effects. Among the antihistaminic effects, it antagonizes the allergic response (vasodilatation, increased vascular permeability, increased mucus secretion) of nasal tissue. Brompheniramine is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, with peak plasma concentration after a single, oral dose of 4 mg reached in 5 hours; urinary excretion is the major route of elimination, mostly as products of biodegradation; the liver is assumed to be the main site of metabolic transformation.


Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride

Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride is an oral sympathomimetic amine that acts as a decongestant to respiratory tract mucous membranes. While its vasoconstrictor action is similar to that of ephedrine, pseudoephedrine has less pressor effect in normotensive adults. Serum half-life for pseudoephedrine is 6 to 8 hours. Acidic urine is associated with faster elimination of the drug. About one-half of the administered dose is excreted in the urine.


Indications and Usage for Brompheniramine and Pseudoephedrine Drops


Brompheniramine Maleate 1 mg and Pseudoephedrine HCl 7.5 mg Drops is indicated for symptomatic relief of upper respiratory symptoms, including nasal congestion, associated with allergy or the common cold.

Contraindications


Patients with hypersensitivity or idiosyncrasy to any of its ingredients. Do not use in newborn infants, premature infants, in nursing mothers, in patients with severe hypertension, severe coronary artery disease, ischemic heart disease, or in those receiving monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors. Antihistamines are contraindicated in patients with narrow-angle glaucoma, urinary retention, peptic ulcer, and during an asthma attack. Antihistamines should not be used to treat lower respiratory tract conditions including asthma.

Warnings


Antihistamines may diminish mental alertness, and may cause hyperexcitability especially in children. At doses higher than the recommended dose, nervousness, dizziness, or sleeplessness may occur. Especially in infants and small children, antihistamines in overdosage may cause hallucinations, convulsions, and death. Use with caution in patients with hypertension, ischemic heart disease, and persons older than 60 years old. Do not give this product to children who have a chronic pulmonary disease, breathing problems such as chronic bronchitis, glaucoma, or those who are taking sedatives or tranquilizers without first consulting with a doctor. Considerable caution should be exercised in patients with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, ischemic heart disease, hyperthyroidism, increased intraocular pressure and prostatic hypertrophy. Do not exceed the recommended dosage. If nervousness, dizziness, or sleeplessness occurs, discontinue use and consult a doctor.

Precautions


General

Because Brompheniramine Maleate 1 mg and Pseudoephrdrine HCl 7.5 mg Drops contain an antihistamine, it should be used with caution in patients with a history of bronchial asthma, narrow angle glaucoma, gastrointestinal obstruction, or urinary bladder neck obstruction. Due to its sympathomimetic component, Brompheniramine Maleate 1 mg Drops should be used with caution in patients with diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, or thyroid disease.


Information for Patients (or Parents)

Patients (or parents) should be warned about engaging in activities requiring mental alertness. In mild cases or in particularly sensitive patients, less frequent doses may be adequate.


Drug Interactions

Do not use this medication in a child who is taking a prescription monoamineoxidase (MAO) inhibitor (certain drugs used for depression, psychiatric or emotional conditions, or Parkinson’s disease), or for 2 weeks after stopping the MAO inhibitor. MAO inhibitors prolong and intensify the anticholinergic effects of antihistamines and may enhance the effect of pseudoephedrine HCl. Sympathomimetic agents may reduce the effects of anti-hypertensive drugs. Antihistamines have additive effects with alcohol and other CNS (central nervous system) depressants (hypnotics, sedatives, tranquilizers, anti-anxiety agents, etc.)


Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility

Studies have not been performed to assess the carcinogenic and mutual potential of Brompheniramine Maleate 1 mg and Pseudoephedrine HCl 7.5 mg Drops or its effects on fertility.


Pregnancy, Teratogenic Effects – Pregnancy Category C

Animal reproductive studies have not been performed with Brompheniramine Maleate 1 mg and Pseudoephedrine HCl 7.5 mg Drops. It is also not known if it can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. Brompheniramine Maleate 1 mg Drops should be given to a pregnant women only if clearly needed.


Nursing Mothers

Because of the higher risk of intolerance of antihistamines in small infants generally, and in newborns and prematures in particular, Brompheniramine Maleate 1 mg and Pseudoephedrine HCl 7.5 mg Drops is contraindicated in nursing mothers.


Geriatric Use

The elderly (60 years of age or older) are more likely to experience adverse reactions. Caution should be taken when prescribing this drug to the elderly.

Adverse Reactions


The most frequent adverse reactions to Brompheniramine Maleate 1 mg and Pseudoephedrine HCl 7.5 mg Drops include: sedation, dryness of mouth, nose and throat; thickening of bronchial secretions; dizziness.


Other adverse reactions may include:

Dermatologic- urticaria, drug rash, photosensitivity, pruritus

Respiratory System- tightness of chest and wheezing, shortness of breath.

Hematologic System- hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, agranulocytosis.



OVERDOSE


Signs and Symptoms

Central nervous system effects from overdosage of brompheniramine may vary from depression to stimulation, especially in children. Anticholinergic effects may also occur. Overdosage of pseudoephedrine may result in CNS stimulation, tachycardia, hypertension and cardiac arhythmias, signs of CNS depression may occasionally be seen.


Treatment

Include emesis if patient is alert and is seen prior to 6 hours following ingestion. Precautions against aspiration must be taken, especially in infants and small children. Gastric lavage may be carried out, but in some cases tracheotomy may be needed prior to lavage. For CNS hyperactivity or convulsive seizures, intravenous shortacting barbiturates may be indicated. Hypertensive responses and/or tachycardia should be treated appropriately. Oxygen, intravenous fluids and other supportive measures should be used as indicated.
