1.
WHAT SIMBRINZA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
SIMBRINZA contains two active substances, brinzolamide and brimonidine
tartrate. Brinzolamide
belongs to a group of medicines called carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
and brimonidine tartrate belongs
to a group of medicines called alpha-2 adrenergic receptor agonists.
Both substances work together to
reduce pressure within the eye.
SIMBRINZA is used to lower pressure in the eyes in adult patients
(aged 18 years and over) who have
eye conditions known as glaucoma or ocular hypertension and whose high
pressure in the eyes cannot
be controlled effectively by one medicine alone.

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Decrease of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in adult patients with
open-angle glaucoma or ocular
hypertension for whom monotherapy provides insufficient IOP
reduction(see section 5.1).
4.2
POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
_Use in adults, including the elderly _
The recommended dose is one drop of SIMBRINZA in the affected eye(s)
two times daily.
_Missed dose _
If a dose is missed, treatment should be continued with the next dose
as planned.
_Hepatic and/or renal impairment _
SIMBRINZA has not been studied in patients with hepatic impairment and
caution is therefore
recommended in this population (see section 4.4).
SIMBRINZA has not been studied in patients with severe renal
impairment (CrCl <30 mL/min) or in
patients with hyperchloraemic acidosis. Since the brinzolamide
component of SIMBRINZA and its
metabolite are excreted predominantly by the kidney, SIMBRINZA is
contraindicated in such patients
(see section 4.3).
_Paediatric population _
The safety and efficacy of SIMBRINZA in children and adolescents aged
2 to 17 years have not been
established. No data are available.
SIMBRINZA is contraindicated in neonates and infants aged less than 2
years in the decrease of
elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) with open-angle glaucoma or ocular
hypertension for whom
monotherapy provides insufficient IOP reduction because of safety
concerns (see section 4.3).

Method of administration
For ocular use.
