Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
Rhopressa (Netarsudil) is used to treat open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It does so by helping aqueous humor (fluid in the eye) drain better, resulting in reduced eye pressure. Despite the medication’s effectiveness, it’s unknown how exactly it works.

What is Rhopressa (Netarsudil) used for?
Rhopressa is a prescription eye drop used to lower elevated intraocular pressure in people with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Reducing eye pressure helps protect the optic nerve and may slow vision loss associated with these conditions.
How does Rhopressa work?
Rhopressa works by increasing fluid drainage from the eye through the trabecular meshwork and by reducing fluid production and episcleral venous pressure. This combined action helps lower pressure inside the eye more effectively.
How is Rhopressa typically used?
Rhopressa is usually applied as one drop in the affected eye once daily in the evening. Using it more often than prescribed does not improve effectiveness and may increase side effects.
What are the most common side effects of Rhopressa?
The most common side effects include eye redness, mild eye discomfort, stinging or burning after application, and small blood spots on the white of the eye. These effects are usually mild to moderate and often lessen with continued use.
Can Rhopressa affect vision?
Rhopressa may cause temporary blurred vision immediately after application. This usually clears within a short time, but caution is advised when performing activities that require clear vision right after use.
Is Rhopressa safe to use with other glaucoma eye drops?
Rhopressa is often used alone or in combination with other glaucoma medications. When multiple eye drops are used, they are typically spaced several minutes apart to allow proper absorption.
Who should not use Rhopressa?
Rhopressa may not be appropriate for individuals with known hypersensitivity to netarsudil or any component of the formulation. A healthcare provider should evaluate suitability based on eye health and medical history.
Can Rhopressa be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
There is limited information on the use of Rhopressa during pregnancy or breastfeeding. A healthcare professional should assess potential risks and benefits before use in these situations.
What should be done if a dose of Rhopressa is missed?
If a dose is missed, it is generally applied the next evening as scheduled. Extra doses are not typically used to make up for a missed application.
How should Rhopressa be stored?
Rhopressa should be stored at room temperature and protected from light. The bottle should be kept tightly closed when not in use, and care should be taken to avoid contaminating the dropper tip.
