WHAT BIMATOPROST/TIMOLOL TIEFENBACHER IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Bimatoprost/Timolol Tiefenbacher contains two different active
substances (bimatoprost and timolol) that
both reduce pressure in the eye. Bimatoprost belongs to a group of
medicines called prostamides, a
prostaglandin analogue. Timolol belongs to a group of medicines called
beta-blockers.
Your eye contains a clear, watery liquid that feeds the inside of the
eye. 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 and could eventually damage your
sight (an illness called glaucoma).
Bimatoprost/Timolol Tiefenbacher works by reducing the production of
liquid and also increasing the
amount of liquid that is drained. This reduces the pressure inside the
eye.
Bimatoprost/Timolol Tiefenbacher eye drops are used to treat high
pressure in the eye in adults, including
the elderly. This high pressure can lead to glaucoma. Your doctor wi

POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
_Recommended dosage in adults (including older people) _
The recommended dose is one drop of Bimatoprost/Timolol Rompharm in
the affected eye(s) once
daily, administered either in the morning or in the evening. It should
be administered at the same time
each day.
Existing literature data for bimatoprost/timolol suggest that evening
dosing may be more effective in
IOP lowering than morning dosing. However, consideration should be
given to the likelihood of
compliance when considering either morning or evening dosing (see
section 5.1).
If one dose is missed, treatment should continue with the next dose as
planned. The dose should not
exceed one drop in the affected eye(s) daily.
_Renal and hepatic impairment _
Bimatoprost/timolol has not been studied in patients with hepatic or
renal impairment. Therefore
caution should be used in treating such patients.
_Paediatric population _
The safety and efficacy of bimatoprost/timolol in children aged 0 to
18 years has not been established.
No data are available.
Method of administration
If more than one topical ophthalmic medicinal product is to be used,
each one should be instilled at
least 5 minutes apar
