How to Use Isopto Carpine (pilocarpine hydrochloride)?

Follow your doctor’s prescription exactly.

Apply 2 drops of Isopto Carpine in the affected eye(s) 3 or 4 times a day or as directed. Wash your hands before using the drops and ensure the dropper does not touch your eye or surrounding surfaces to avoid contamination.

Tilt your head back, pull down your lower eyelid to create a pocket, and apply one drop at a time. Gently press the corner of your eye near your nose after using the drops to limit absorption into the rest of your body. Close the bottle firmly after use and wash your hands.

If you use other eye medications, wait 5-10 minutes between applying Isopto Carpine and the next drops. Apply eye ointments last.

If you miss a dose, apply it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not use a double dose.

In case of an overdose, rinse your eyes with warm water and contact a healthcare provider or Poison Control Center immediately, even if you have no symptoms. Symptoms of overdose may include headache, sweating, stomach cramps, vomiting, or diarrhea.
