Netapride Eye Drop 3 ml

Netapride Eye Drop 3 ml is an anti-glaucoma agent belonging to the class of medicines called rho kinase inhibitors indicated for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Glaucoma causes damage to the optic nerve (essential for good vision) due to abnormally increased pressure in the eye. Ocular hypertension is increased pressure in the eye due to poor drainage of aqueous humour (fluid in the eye that maintains normal pressure by its continuous flow). 
 
Netapride Eye Drop 3 ml contains ‘netarsudil’, which works by increasing the outflow of aqueous humour; this helps lower the increased pressure in the eye. Thereby, Netapride Eye Drop 3 ml helps treat glaucoma and ocular hypertension.
 
You are advised to use Netapride Eye Drop 3 ml for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as blurred vision, instillation site pain, and redness of the eye. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
