What is Isopto Carbachol?

Carbachol lowers pressure in the eye by increasing the amount of fluid that drains from the eye.

Carbachol ophthalmic (for the eye) is used to reduce pressure inside the eye after cataract surgery.

Carbachol ophthalmic may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Warnings

You should not be treated with carbachol ophthalmic if you are allergic to it.

To make sure carbachol ophthalmic is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have any of these other conditions:

  • swelling of your iris (the colored part of your eye);
  • a detached retina;
  • heart failure;
  • asthma;
  • a stomach ulcer;
  • an overactive thyroid;
  • urination problems;
  • Parkinson's disease; or
  • an allergy to latex.

It is not known whether carbachol ophthalmic will harm an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant.

It is not known whether carbachol ophthalmic passes into breast milk or if it could harm a nursing baby. Tell your doctor if you are breast-feeding a baby.

How should I use Isopto Carbachol

Use Isopto Carbachol (Ophthalmic) exactly as directed on the label, or as prescribed by your doctor. Do not use in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended.

Carbachol ophthalmic is given as an injection into your eye. Your doctor will use a medicine to numb your eye before giving you the injection. You will receive this injection in your doctor's office or other clinic setting.

What should I do if I missed a dose of Isopto Carbachol (Ophthalmic)?

Since carbachol ophthalmic is given by a healthcare professional during surgery, it does not have a daily dosing schedule.
