Isopto Atropine and Zortress

• Generic Name: atropine ophthalmic

• Other Brand Names: Atropine-1, Isopto Atropine, Atropin-Care, Atropisol, Ocu-Tropine, Atropine Care, Atrosulf-1

Atropine causes the muscles in your eye to become relaxed. This widens (dilates) your pupil so that it will not respond to light.

Isopto Atropine (for the eye) is used to dilate your pupils when you have an inflammatory condition or in postsurgery situations in which this effect may be helpful.

Isopto Atropine is also used in people with a condition called amblyopia (sometimes called "lazy eye"). This medicine can be placed into the stronger eye to temporarily blur the vision in that eye. This helps strengthen the weaker eye because the brain will force that eye to work harder to focus.

Isopto Atropine may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.

• Generic Name: everolimus
• Dosage Forms: tablet
• Other Brand Names: Zortress, Afinitor, Afinitor Disperz

Zortress (everolimus) lowers your body's immune system. The immune system helps your body fight infections. The immune system can also fight or "reject" a transplanted organ such as a liver or kidney. This is because the immune system treats the new organ as an invader.

The Zortress brand of everolimus is used to prevent organ rejection after a kidney or liver transplant. Zortress is used together with cyclosporine, steroids, and other medications.

Afinitor is another brand of everolimus used to treat certain types of cancer. This medication guide provides information only about about Zortress.
