How AC Mox Tablet works

AC Mox Tablet is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. It works in glaucoma by decreasing the production of aqueous humour (fluid in the eye), thereby lowering the increased eye pressure. It also acts on the kidneys to remove extra water and electrolytes through urine to relieve fluid retention and oedema (swelling). In epilepsy, it relieves seizures (fits) by stabilizing electrical activity in the brain.

FAQ's on AC Mox Tablet

Is AC Mox effective?

AC Mox is effective if used in the dose and duration advised by your doctor. Do not stop taking it even if you see improvement in your condition. If you stop using AC Mox too early, the symptoms may return or worsen.

What does AC Mox do?

AC Mox reduces the pressure inside the eyes, known as intraocular pressure. This helps to reduce the risk of damage to the optic nerve responsible for normal vision. If the pressure in the eye is not controlled, it can gradually lead to blindness. AC Mox effectively controls ocular hypertension and certain types of glaucoma by decreasing the pressure in the eyes.

Who should not take AC Mox?

You should not take AC Mox if you have or ever had cirrhosis, severe liver or kidney disease, an electrolyte imbalance, adrenal gland failure, or an allergy to AC Mox or sulfa drugs. Also, let your doctor know if you are pregnant, planning to conceive or are breastfeeding to avoid any harmful effect on your baby.

What if I forget to take a dose of AC Mox?

If you forget a dose of AC Mox, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, take it in the regular schedule instead of taking the missed dose. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one as this may increase the chances of developing side effects.

I feel better now, can I stop using AC Mox?

No, you should not stop using AC Mox suddenly without talking to your doctor. This is because if you stop the medication before completing the treatment, your symptoms may return or even worsen. Use AC Mox in the dose and duration advised by your doctor to get maximum benefit of AC Mox.
