WHAT XALAVEX IS USED FOR
Xalavex is used to treat conditions
known as open angle glaucoma, chronic
angle closure glaucoma
and ocular
hypertension.
Xalavex is also used to treat increased
eye pressure and glaucoma in children.
HOW XALAVEX WORKS
Xalavex belongs to a group of
medicines known as prostaglandin
analogues. It works by increasing the
natural outflow of fluid from inside the
eye into the bloodstream.
