WHAT PROSTACOM IS USED FOR
Reduction of intraocular pressure (IOP)
in patients with open angle glaucoma and
ocular hypertension
who
are
insufficiently responsive to topical beta-
blockers.
HOW PROSTACOM WORKS
PROSTACOM contains
two medicines:
latanoprost
and
timolol.
Latanoprost
belongs to a group of medicines known as
prostaglandin analogues.
Timolol belongs to a group of medicines
known as beta-blockers. Latanoprost works
by increasing the natural
outflow of
fluid
from the eye into the bloodstream. Timolol
works by slowing the formation of fluid in
the eye.
PROSTACOM is
used
to
reduce
the
pressure in your eye if you have conditions
known as open angle glaucoma or ocular
hypertension.
Both
these
conditions
are
linked to an increase in the pressure within
your
eye,
eventually
affecting
your
eyesight.
Your
doctor
will
usually
prescribe you PROSTACOM when other
medicines have not worked adequately.
BEFORE YOU USE PROSTACOM

the
other
ingredients
of
PROSTACOM.
-
if
you have
or
have
had in the past
respiratory
problems
such
as
asthma,
severe
chronic
obstructive
bronchitis
(severe
lung disease
which may cause
wheeziness, difficulty in breathing and/or
long-standing cough)
-
if
you have serious
heart
problems
or
heart rhythm disorders
-
if you are pregnant (or trying to become
pregnant)
-
