FAQs about Alphagan
What should I do if I miss a dose?
If you miss a dose of Alphagan, you should take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose.
Can I take Alphagan while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The use of Alphagan during pregnancy should be discussed with your healthcare provider, as it is not known whether it can harm an unborn baby. If you are breastfeeding, consult your doctor to understand the potential risks, as it is not clear if brimonidine passes into breast milk.
How should I store Alphagan?
Alphagan should be stored at room temperature, away from light and moisture. Keep the bottle tightly closed and out of reach of children. Do not freeze the medication.
