Cosopt (Dorzolamide Timolol) is a topical medication used to reduce intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It is a combination of two active ingredients: Dorzolamide and Timolol. These two substances work together to reduce the buildup of fluid in the eye which is responsible for elevated intraocular pressure.

Cosopt is a medication used to treat certain types of glaucoma and other eye conditions that involve increased pressure within the eye. Timolol belongs to a class of drugs known as beta-blockers, while dorzolamide belongs to a class of drugs called carbonic anhydrase inhibitors.

Cosopt comes in the form of eye drops and is directly applied to the surface of the eye. When eye drops are dispensed, they remain on the surface of the eye, and the active ingredients are absorbed into the eye to help lower eye pressure and manage glaucoma. Additionally, Cosopt comes in a preservative-free form for people who are sensitive to the preservatives used in other eye medications.

The recommended dosage of Cosopt (dorzolamide/timolol) is one drop in the affected eye two times a day (morning and evening). The dose should be determined by your doctor depending on your individual symptoms and condition.
