A member asked:
Use travatan z for glaucoma w/minimal side effects. if a 2nd class of drug is added will there be bothersome side effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Generally no!: Each class of medication has its own side effects. These drops generally do not amplify each other's side effect! however... More drops means more preservatives which my cause irritation.
