Transient myopia induced by acetazolamide in a pregnant patient with idiopathic intracranial hypertension: A case of successful rechallenge☆ [PDF]
Am J Ophthalmol Case RepBackground: Acetazolamide is the mainstay of treatment for idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). Transient myopia is a rare ocular adverse effect, usually attributed to ciliary body edema and forward displacement of the lens–iris diaphragm.

Effect of Acetazolamide on Pulmonary Hemodynamics and Right Heart Function in Healthy Adults Going to Altitude: A Randomized Controlled Trial. [PDF]
J Am Heart AssocBackground Exposure to high altitude triggers hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction with a rise in pulmonary artery pressure (PAP). This may lead to symptomatic pulmonary hypertension with impaired right heart function and exercise capacity. We investigated
