Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a specially compounded topical cream that contains Azelastine Hydrochloride 0.15% and Brimonidine Tartrate 0.5%. This unique formulation is designed to address a range of conditions, including allergic conjunctivitis, vernal keratoconjunctivitis, and ocular itching associated with allergic conjunctivitis.

Azelastine Hydrochloride is an antihistamine that functions by inhibiting the action of histamine, a substance in the body that triggers allergic symptoms. On the other hand, Brimonidine Tartrate is an alpha-2 agonist that operates by reducing the amount of fluid in the eye, thereby minimizing redness and swelling. The combination of these two medications offers effective relief from the symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis, vernal keratoconjunctivitis, and ocular itching associated with allergic conjunctivitis.

This compounded formulation is a semisolid preparation dispensed in a pump mechanism, designed for convenient and controlled application on the skin for localized treatment or absorption of active ingredients. It is intended to be applied to the affected area twice daily, or as directed by a healthcare provider. It is crucial to adhere to the instructions provided by the healthcare provider and to avoid contact with the eyes.

Bayview Pharmacy is committed to ensuring the safety and efficacy of this formulation when used as directed. If you have any questions about this formulation or how it can assist in treating your condition, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. We are here to help you identify the most suitable treatment option for your specific needs.

Patients should be aware of potential side effects, which may include temporary blurred vision, stinging, burning, or redness at the application site. If these side effects persist or worsen, it is recommended to contact your healthcare provider immediately.
