Diamox Tablet is used to lower high pressure inside the eyes, which can occur in conditions like glaucoma. If not treated, this pressure can damage the optic nerve and lead to vision loss. Diamox works by reducing the amount of fluid produced in the eye.
It can be taken with or without food, and your doctor will decide the correct dose based on your condition and response to treatment. Take it at the same time each day, and continue using it regularly, even if you feel fine, unless your doctor advises otherwise.
Common side effects include headaches, tiredness, dizziness, and changes in taste. If these symptoms persist or bother you, talk to your doctor—they may adjust your dosage or suggest an alternative. This medication is not recommended during pregnancy. Inform your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems, heart conditions, or diabetes before starting this medicine.
