WHAT TIMOVEX IS USED FOR
Timovex 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 Timovex when other
medicines have not worked
adequately.
HOW TIMOVEX WORKS
Timovex 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.
