Simbrinza

Simbrinza is a combination medication that contains brinzolamide and brimonidine tartrate, used primarily for the treatment of ocular hypertension and open-angle glaucoma. This combination helps to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients for whom monotherapy is insufficient. Brinzolamide is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, while brimonidine is an alpha-2 adrenergic agonist, and their synergistic action enhances IOP reduction.

Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Simbrinza Work?

  • Brinzolamide: Inhibits carbonic anhydrase, leading to a decrease in the production of aqueous humor in the eye, which lowers intraocular pressure.
  • Brimonidine: Reduces aqueous humor production and increases uveoscleral outflow, further lowering intraocular pressure.

Common Dosages

  • Ophthalmic suspension: Common concentration is 1% brinzolamide and 0.2% brimonidine tartrate.

Typical Dosing

  • The usual recommended dose is one drop in the affected eye(s) twice daily.


Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Reduction of intraocular pressure in patients with ocular hypertension or open-angle glaucoma.

Who Shouldn't Take Simbrinza?

  • Known hypersensitivity to brinzolamide, brimonidine, or any components of the formulation.
  • Severe renal impairment (for brinzolamide).


Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Instruct patients on the proper technique for instilling eye drops to ensure the medication reaches the eye and to minimize systemic absorption.
  • Advise patients to avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to prevent contamination.
  • Discuss potential side effects, such as burning, stinging, or blurred vision upon instillation, and encourage patients to report any severe or unusual symptoms.
