Timbrim Eye Drops 5 ml is used to treat open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension (high pressure in the eyes). Glaucoma is a common eye condition where the optic nerve, which connects the eye to the brain, becomes damaged.

Timbrim Eye Drops 5 ml is a combination of two medicines, namely Brimonidine and Timolol. Brimonidine narrows the blood vessels in the eye and reduces fluid in the eye. Timolol lowers eye pressure by reducing fluid (aqueous humour) made in the eye.

In some cases, Timbrim Eye Drops 5 ml may cause certain common side effects such as itching, stinging sensation, foreign body sensation, burning sensation, redness, blurred vision, tiredness, drowsiness, headache, and dryness in the mouth. Talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

You should not use Timbrim Eye Drops 5 ml without consulting your doctor if you have an eye infection or allergies. It is not recommended to use Timbrim Eye Drops 5 ml during breastfeeding since Timolol can pass into breast milk.
