The medication is administered as eye drops, usually once daily in the evening. It is important to follow the doctor's instructions to ensure treatment efficacy.
Side effects may include eye irritation, redness, changes in iris color, or dry eyes. In rare cases, allergic reactions, bradycardia, or macular edema may occur.
