What is Acetazolamide Er ?
Acetazolamide ER (extended-release) is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor used primarily to treat conditions involving fluid retention such as glaucoma, drug-induced edema, and certain types of epilepsy, as well as to prevent acute mountain sickness. Its mechanism involves the inhibition of carbonic anhydrase, reducing the production of aqueous humor and cerebrospinal fluid, as well as enhancing renal excretion of bicarbonate, which helps adjust fluid and electrolyte levels. This extended-release formulation allows for a more steady release of the medication, potentially reducing side effects and improving patient compliance.
