Contents of the pack and other information
1. WHAT [TRAVOPROST] IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
[Travoprost] eye drops are used to treat high pressure in the eye.
This pressure can lead to
an illness called GLAUCOMA.
HIGH PRESSURE IN THE EYE. Your eyeballs contain a clear, watery liquid
which feeds the
inside of the eye. Liquid is always emptying out of the eye, and more
liquid is always
being produced. If the eye fills up faster than it empties, the
pressure inside the eye builds
up. If it gets too high, it can damage your sight.
[Travoprost] is one of a group of medicines for glaucoma called
prostaglandin analogues.
It works by increasing the outflow of liquid, which lowers the
pressure in the eye. It may
be used on its own or with other drops e.g. beta-blockers, which also
reduce pressure.

2 months to < 18 years

4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
_Use in adults, including the elderly population _
The dose is one drop of [Travoprost] in the conjunctival sac of the
affected eye(s) once daily.
Optimal effect is obtained if the dose is administered in the evening.
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 and result in a decrease in systemic adverse reactions.
If more than one topical ophthalmic medicinal product is being used,
the medicinal products
must be administered at least 5 minutes apart (see section 4.5).
If a dose is missed, treatment should be continued with the next dose
as planned. The dose
should not exceed one drop in the affected eye(s) daily.
When substituting another ophthalmic antiglaucoma medicinal product
with [Travoprost], the
other medicinal product should be discontinued and [Travoprost] should
be started the
following day.
_Hepatic and renal impairment _
Travoprost has been studied in patients with mild to severe hepatic
impairment and in patients
with mild to severe renal impairment (creat
