When deciding on treatment for glaucoma, epilepsy, or altitude sickness, it’s helpful to compare acetazolamide to similar medications:
| Medication | Primary Use | Comparison to Acetazolamide | Notes |
| Acetazolamide | Glaucoma, epilepsy, altitude sickness | — | Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor; used for various conditions involving fluid or pressure. |
| Furosemide (Lasix) | Fluid buildup (heart, liver, kidney disease) | More potent diuretic; not effective for intraocular pressure or altitude sickness. | Loop diuretic; rapid fluid removal. |
| Topiramate (Topamax) | Seizures, migraines | Also inhibits carbonic anhydrase; broader side effects; not FDA-approved for intracranial hypertension. | Used off-label for pressure-related conditions. |
| Methazolamide (Neptazane) | Glaucoma | Very similar; may have fewer side effects and longer half-life in some patients. | Also a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor; choice depends on patient tolerance and response. |
