Which cap color corresponds to fixed combination medications that include a beta-blocker?

Explanation:
Color cues on glaucoma meds help you identify the drug class at a glance. Fixed combinations that include a beta-blocker are typically marked with a dark blue cap, so this cap color signals a beta-blocker–containing combo. The beta-blocker lowers aqueous humor production, and pairing it with another agent in one bottle improves efficacy and adherence. While other cap colors correspond to different classes or single-agent medications, the dark blue cap is the convention used here for beta-blocker combinations. Always read the label, since color codes can vary by manufacturer or region.
