Nitrocin 5ML Injection Marketer Samarth Life Sciences Pvt Ltd SALT COMPOSITION Nitroglycerin (5mg/ml) Salt Synonyms Glyceryl Trinitrate Storage Store below 30°C Uses of Nitrocin Injection Angina (heart-related chest pain) Heart Failure Treatment of Hypertension (high blood pressure) Coronary artery disease Hypertensive emergency Anal fissure Product introduction Nitrocin 5mg Injection is used to treat and prevent heart-related chest pain (angina) and hypertension (high blood pressure) during surgery. This medicine works by relaxing and widening blood vessels so blood can flow more easily to the heart. It has a very short-lived effect. Nitrocin 5mg Injection is given as an injection under the supervision of a doctor with careful blood pressure monitoring. This is given as a continuous infusion into a vein and should not be stopped abruptly. It should not be mixed with any other medication of any kind. The most common side effect of Nitrocin 5mg Injection is a headache which may be severe. This can sometimes be helped by drinking plenty of fluids and avoiding alcohol. You may also experience lightheadedness, which could increase your risk of having a fall. There are other, rarer side effects, some of them serious. Ask your doctor and read the leaflet which comes with the medicine to make sure you are keeping safe. Do not use Nitrocin 5mg Injection if you are taking medicines to treat high blood pressure in your lungs (pulmonary hypertension), or erectile dysfunction; or if you have anemia or glaucoma (increased pressure inside the eye). Always tell your doctor what other health conditions you have and what other medicines you are taking. It is best not to drink alcohol with this medicine as it increases some of the side effects. If you are affected by dizziness, avoid driving. If you are pregnant, thinking about becoming pregnant, or breastfeeding, ask your doctor before taking this medicine. Benefits of Nitrocin Injection In Treatment of Hypertension (high blood pressure) Nitrocin 5mg Injection is used to treat hypertension in hypertensive emergencies. It rapidly dilates (widens) the blood vessels. This rapid vasodilation helps reduce blood pressure levels, relieving the strain on the heart and improving blood flow to vital organs. It is typically used in critical situations where immediate blood pressure reduction is necessary, such as severe high blood pressure that can lead to organ damage or other life-threatening complications. Side effects of Nitrocin Injection Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them Common side effects of Nitrocin Blurred vision Decreased blood pressure Dizziness Headache Increased heart rate Lightheadedness Paresthesia (tingling or pricking sensation) How to use Nitrocin Injection Your doctor or nurse will give you this medicine. Kindly do not self administer. How Nitrocin Injection works Nitrocin 5mg Injection is a nitrate. It works by improving blood supply to heart and relaxing the blood vessels which decreases the oxygen demand of the heart and reduces its workload, thereby preventing/treating attacks of angina (chest pain). Relaxation of blood vessels lowers blood pressure.

F M N Eye Drops contain Fluorometholone, a corticosteroid used to treat inflammation and other related conditions of the eyes. Here's an overview of its uses: 🔹 Primary Uses Anti-Inflammatory Treatment Fluorometholone is a mild corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation in the eye. It is often prescribed for conditions like conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva), iritis (inflammation of the iris), and uveitis (inflammation of the uvea, the middle layer of the eye). Post-Surgical Inflammation It is commonly used to control inflammation and swelling after eye surgeries, such as cataract surgery or other procedures, to help reduce discomfort and promote healing. Allergic Eye Conditions Fluorometholone may be used for treating allergic reactions that cause eye redness, itching, and swelling, such as in seasonal allergic conjunctivitis or vernal keratoconjunctivitis. Eye Infections (with inflammation) In some cases, it may be used for eye infections that cause inflammation, although it's important to note that it should not be used for infections caused by viruses, fungi, or bacteria unless combined with other appropriate treatments. 🔹 How It Works Fluorometholone is a steroid that works by suppressing the immune response in the eye. It inhibits the production of chemicals called prostaglandins, which are responsible for causing inflammation, swelling, and pain. By reducing inflammation, the drops help relieve symptoms like redness, swelling, and discomfort. ⚠️ Common Side Effects Eye irritation, burning, or stinging upon application Blurred vision (usually temporary) Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) with prolonged use, which may lead to glaucoma or cataract formation Redness or dryness of the eyes Sensitivity to light (photophobia) Watering eyes 🔹 Usage Tips Dosage: Typically, 1-2 drops are applied to the affected eye(s), 2 to 4 times a day, or as prescribed by your doctor. Application Instructions: Wash your hands thoroughly before applying the drops. Tilt your head back and gently pull down the lower eyelid to form a small pocket. Place 1 drop in the pocket, and then gently close your eye and blink a few times to spread the medication evenly across the eye. If using other eye medications, wait 5–10 minutes between each. Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before applying the drops and wait 15 minutes before reinserting them. 🔹 Precautions Infections: Avoid using Fluorometholone if you have an active eye infection (especially viral or fungal), as corticosteroids can suppress the immune response and worsen infections. Eye Pressure: Fluorometholone can increase the intraocular pressure (IOP) over time, which may lead to glaucoma. It is important to monitor IOP regularly if used long-term. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor before using this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as corticosteroids should be used cautiously in these situations. Prolonged Use: Long-term use of corticosteroid eye drops should be under close supervision of a healthcare provider, as it can lead to complications like cataracts or glaucoma.

Dorzopar Eye Drops containing Dorzolamide 2% are primarily used to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in individuals with glaucoma or ocular hypertension (high eye pressure). Here's a detailed breakdown of its uses: 🔹 Primary Uses Open-Angle Glaucoma Dorzolamide is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor that helps reduce the production of aqueous humor (the fluid inside the eye). By decreasing the amount of fluid produced, it lowers the intraocular pressure (IOP), which is important in treating open-angle glaucoma. Glaucoma is a condition where high eye pressure can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. Ocular Hypertension Dorzopar is also used for the treatment of ocular hypertension, a condition in which the eye pressure is elevated but glaucoma has not yet developed. Lowering eye pressure helps prevent the progression to glaucoma. 🔹 How It Works Dorzolamide works by inhibiting the carbonic anhydrase enzyme in the eye. This enzyme is involved in the production of aqueous humor. By blocking this enzyme, Dorzolamide reduces the amount of fluid produced inside the eye, which in turn lowers the eye pressure. ⚠️ Common Side Effects Eye irritation, burning, or stinging upon application Blurred vision (temporary) Redness in the eyes or foreign body sensation Dry eyes or increased tear production Headaches or dizziness (in some cases) Taste disturbance (a bitter taste in the mouth) 🔹 Usage Tips Dosage: Typically, 1 drop in each affected eye, twice daily (morning and evening), or as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Application Instructions: Wash your hands thoroughly before applying the drops. Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to form a small pocket. Place one drop in the pocket without touching the dropper tip to your eye. Gently close your eye and blink a few times to help spread the medication. If using other eye medications, wait 5–10 minutes between applications. Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. 🔹 Precautions Kidney or Liver Problems: Since Dorzolamide is metabolized in the body, it should be used with caution in individuals with kidney or liver issues. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor before using this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as the safety of Dorzolamide during pregnancy or while breastfeeding has not been fully established. Eye Infections: Be cautious if you have an eye infection, as Dorzolamide may not be suitable for some active infections. Systemic Effects: While Dorzolamide is generally applied locally to the eye, some systemic absorption may occur, leading to side effects like metabolic acidosis (rare). It should be used cautiously in patients with a history of diabetes, kidney disease, or respiratory problems.

Dorzopar-T Eye Drops contain a combination of Dorzolamide and Timolol, which are commonly used to treat glaucoma and ocular hypertension (high eye pressure). Here's a detailed overview of its uses: 🔹 Primary Uses Open-Angle Glaucoma Dorzolamide (a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor) and Timolol (a beta-blocker) work together to lower intraocular pressure (IOP), which is crucial in treating open-angle glaucoma, a condition where elevated eye pressure can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. Ocular Hypertension Used for the treatment of ocular hypertension, a condition where the pressure inside the eye is higher than normal, but glaucoma has not yet developed. It helps to prevent the development of glaucoma. 🔹 How It Works Dorzolamide: Inhibits carbonic anhydrase, an enzyme that plays a role in the production of aqueous humor (the fluid in the eye). By reducing the production of aqueous humor, Dorzolamide lowers eye pressure. Timolol: Beta-blocker that works by reducing the production of aqueous humor and also improves fluid drainage from the eye, both of which help lower intraocular pressure. Together, they provide a dual mechanism of action, significantly reducing the pressure inside the eye. ⚠️ Common Side Effects Eye irritation or burning upon application Blurred vision (temporary) Dry eyes or foreign body sensation Tired eyes or redness Headache, dizziness, or fatigue (due to Timolol's beta-blocker effect) Increased tear production or watery eyes 🔹 Usage Tips Dosage: Typically, 1 drop in each affected eye twice daily, in the morning and evening, or as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Application Instructions: Wash your hands thoroughly. Tilt your head back slightly and gently pull down your lower eyelid. Place one drop in the lower eyelid pocket without touching the dropper tip to your eye. Close your eyes gently and press your finger lightly against the corner of your eye (near the nose) to prevent the medicine from draining into your tear duct. If you are using other eye medications, wait 5–10 minutes between applications. Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. 🔹 Precautions Respiratory Conditions: Since Timolol is a beta-blocker, it can affect the lungs and heart. It should be used cautiously in individuals with asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), or a history of slow heart rate or heart failure. Cardiovascular Issues: If you have a history of heart disease or low blood pressure, consult your doctor before using this medication. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your healthcare provider if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Timolol may not be suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding without medical supervision. Other Medications: Be sure to inform your doctor about any other medications you're taking, especially other beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, or diuretics, as there may be potential interactions.
