Brimosun P 0.15% is used in the treatment, prevention, and improvement of the following diseases such as:

     — Ocular hypertension

     — Open-angle glaucoma

The active ingredient of the drug is Brimonidine. It is an α₂-adrenergic receptor agonist prescribed for ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma. The medicine works by reducing the fluid inside the eye, thereby decreasing the pressure inside the eye.

The recommended dose is usually one drop in the affected eye 2 to 3 times daily for the prescribed period. The recommended dose may vary as per the severity of the condition, response to treatment, drug interaction, and so on. The dose will be prescribed after examining your eye thoroughly. You need to wash your hands first before applying the drops. Before putting the eye drops, you should tilt your head back and then, with a finger, pull the eye's lower lid to form a pouch and then put the drop. Close your eye for some time before resuming normal activity.

The missed dose should be applied as soon as you remember about the dose. However, skip the missed dose and follow the original schedule if close to the next dose.

An overdose of the medicine can worsen the situation; hence it should be avoided as much as possible. If there is a case of overdose, then you must consult your doctor on an urgent basis.
