Active Ingredient: Tafluprost
Reduction of elevated intraocular pressure in open angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension.
As monotherapy in patients:
As adjunctive therapy to beta-blockers.
For this indication, competent medicine agencies globally authorize below treatments:
For:
Ophthalmic, 1 drops tafluprost, once daily at the end of the day.
The recommended dose is one drop of tafluprost in the conjunctival sac of the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening.
The dose should not exceed once daily as more frequent administration may lessen the intraocular pressure lowering effect.
To reduce the risk of darkening of the eyelid skin the patients should wipe off any excess solution from the skin. As with any other eye drops, nasolacrimal occlusion or gently closing the eyelid after administration is recommended. This may reduce the systemic absorption of medicinal products administered via the ocular route.
If more than one topical ophthalmic medicinal product is being used, each one should be administered at least 5 minutes apart.
