Apraclonidine Solution


Generic Name: Apraclonidine Ophthalmic Solution (1%) (app-rah-KLOE-nih-deen)
Brand Name: Iopidine

Apraclonidine Solution is used for:

Controlling or preventing high fluid pressure within the eye following certain types of eye surgery.

Apraclonidine Solution is an alpha-adrenergic agonist. It works by decreasing fluid formation inside the eye, which helps to lower the pressure inside the eye.

Do NOT use Apraclonidine Solution if:

  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Apraclonidine Solution or to similar medicines (eg, clonidine)
  • you are taking or have taken a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor (eg, phenelzine) within the last 14 days

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

Before using Apraclonidine Solution:
