1.
WHAT IS THIS MEDICINE INTENDED FOR?
Lumigan is intended for reducing pressure in the eye in patients with
chronic open-angle
glaucoma. It is used on its own or together with drops which contain
beta-blockers.
THERAPEUTIC GROUP: prostaglandin analogues called prostamides.
Your eye contains a clear, watery liquid that feeds the inside of the
eye. The liquid is constantly
being drained out of the eye and new liquid is made to replace this.
If the liquid cannot drain
out quickly enough, the pressure inside the eye builds up. This
medicine works by increasing
the amount of liquid that is drained. This reduces the pressure inside
the eye. If the high
pressure is not reduced, it could lead to a disease called glaucoma
and eventually damage
your sight.
