Abstract

Initial treatment of glaucoma is based on the topical use of one or more of the glaucoma drugs to reduce intraocular pressure. Double or triple drug treatments are applied where a topical medicament for treatment does not suffice. Double or triple treatments can also be used separately as well as a fixed combination of them. Fixed combination therapies are more advantageous than the combination use of multiple drugs with respect to posology, ease of use and side effects. The basic features, efficacy, tolerability, etc. of fixed combination glaucoma drugs which have been currently used in our country were investigated in this article

Özet

Glokomun başlangıç tedavisi göz içi basıncını düşürmek üzere bir veya daha fazla glokom ilacının topikal kullanılmasına dayanmaktadır. Tedavide bir topikal ilacın yeterli olmadığı durumlarda, ikili veya üçlü ilaç tedavileri uygulanmaktadır. İkili veya üçlü tedaviler ayrı ayrı uygulanabildiği gibi sabit kombine ilaçlar şeklinde de kullanılabilmektedir. Sabit kombinasyon tedavilerinin, pozoloji, kullanım rahatlığı ve yan etkiler açısından birden çok ilacın bir arada kullanımına göre daha avantajlı olduğu gözükmektedir. Bu makalede glokomda ülkemizde halihazırda kullanılmakta olan sabit kombinasyon ilaçların temel özellikleri incelenmiş, etkinlik, tolerabilite gibi özellikleri araştırılmıştır
