About Pilocar Eye Drops
Pilocar Eye Drops contain pilocarpine, a direct-acting cholinergic agent used primarily to manage glaucoma and elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). Manufactured by FDC Ltd, this 5ml ophthalmic solution works by stimulating muscarinic receptors in the eye, causing contraction of the ciliary muscle and opening of the trabecular meshwork. This mechanism facilitates aqueous humour outflow, effectively reducing intraocular pressure within 10-30 minutes of administration, with effects lasting approximately 4-8 hours. While pilocarpine represents a different class compared to beta-blockers like Iobet Eye Drop, both medications aim to lower IOP through distinct pathways. For patients requiring additional pressure reduction, combinations with carbonic anhydrase inhibitors such as Dorzox Eye Drop may be considered under medical supervision.
Dosage & Usage
The typical dosage for chronic glaucoma is one drop instilled into the affected eye(s) up to four times daily, as directed by your ophthalmologist. For acute angle-closure glaucoma, more frequent administration may be necessary initially. Before application, wash your hands thoroughly and tilt your head back, pulling down the lower eyelid to create a small pocket. Instill one drop without touching the dropper tip to the eye or any surface. Close your eye gently for 1-2 minutes and apply light pressure to the inner corner to minimize systemic absorption. Wait at least 5 minutes before applying other eye medications. Do not exceed the prescribed frequency, as overuse may lead to miosis, brow ache, and diminished night vision.
Who Is It For?
Pilocar Eye Drops are intended for adults diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma, angle-closure glaucoma, or ocular hypertension who require IOP reduction to prevent optic nerve damage and vision loss. This medication may also be used to reverse pupil dilation following eye examinations. Pilocar is contraindicated in patients with acute iritis, acute inflammatory disease of the anterior chamber, conditions where pupillary constriction is undesirable, or known hypersensitivity to pilocarpine. Use with caution in patients with asthma, retinal detachment history, or corneal abrasion. Unlike mydriatic agents such as Atropine Eye Drop which dilate the pupil, pilocarpine causes constriction, making it essential to use only as prescribed. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before use.

Can I buy Pilocar Eye Drops online without a prescription?
Pilocar Eye Drops require a valid prescription from a licensed healthcare provider in most countries. This is because pilocarpine needs proper medical supervision to ensure safe and effective use.

Never buy prescription medications from unverified sources, as this poses serious health risks.
