Combigan is an ophthalmic medication that is used in treatment of disorders where there is an increase in the pressure in the eye. It contains a combination of timolol and brimonidine. Timolol is a very effective beta blocker, which helps in decreasing the intraocular pressure. The other component of Combigan, brimonidine, is known to be an alpha agonist agent, which helps in the reduction of the liquid in the eye, thereby reducing the intraocular pressure. Thus, Combigan can be effectively used in treatment of ophthalmic disorders like glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

Uses of Combigan Generic :
The contents of Combigan, brimonidine and timolol, help in reducing the pressure in the eyes. Brimonidine helps by acting on the alpha receptors in the vessels supplying the ciliary body. This leads to the constriction of blood vessels and subsequent reduction in the quantity of the liquid filtering out from blood vessels. This results in reduced formation of aqueous humour (liquid). This way, brimonidine helps in decreasing the intraocular pressure. Timolol, the other content of Combigan, helps in blocking the beta receptors in eyes. This also results in reduction in production of aqueous humour, which in turn, decreases the intraocular pressure. Thus, Combigan helps in treatment of disorders like glaucoma and ocular hypertension. It relieves these conditions by reducing the pressure in the eyes.
