"On picking up my monthly Azopt prescription from Walgreens, on opening the pkg., the Azopt had at most only 1 ml of solution rather than 10 as it says; I called Alcon manuf. on the box and told sold to Novartis; Several times holding to Novartis cust. serv., no answer for at least 45-60 min., and once then a hang up; finally called my insurance co.; they said would have to bring the bottle to Walgreens; they had to again call the ins. co. and wait; they tried to refuse since said would have to override and I ended up paying again copay and ins. co. belligerent to do override; I WAS one who went without the med for 5 days; Where is responsibility from Novartis if they now own the co.? Next time have Walgreens open pkg. to make sure you have the right amt. product."

"I have been on treatment with Azopt eye drops - once a day - for over 25 years. About 17 months ago, I started getting breathless - especially when walking on hills - out of the blue! Until that time, I had never experienced such a feeling. I'm very upset about it. It's very upsetting that while treating one condition, another organ eventually gets damaged."
