It makes me so groggy I cannot work. Makes me so sedentary that I've put on 20 lbs. Negatively impacted my quality of life. I apply it lying down so as not to get it in my system. Still makes me groggy. My pressure is still high.

Comment:
Its a bit spendy is my only complaint. Seems to work well. It was prescribed to counter the side effect of the Prednisone drops I needed to prevent rejection after my corneal transplant. Itching is a side effect of all my drops. To me itching is healing, however rubbing my eyes while sleeping has created some painful issues. It comes down to use it or go blind. Far as I know there is no generic.
