A member asked:
Good day. my wife is on glaucosan eyedrops but according to my pharmacy the medication has been discontinued. is there a substitute for it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Timolol: The active medication in Glaucosan eye drops is timolol which is widely available as treatment for glaucoma. If you have a prescription for Glaucosan, the pharmacist should automatically fill it with a different brand of Timolol unless the doctor has checked the "no substitutions" box. In that case you'll have to talk to your doctor.
