Contents of the pack and other information
1. WHAT TAVU IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Tavu 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.
Tavu 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 Tavu when other medicines have not worked adequately.
2. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU USE TAVU
Tavu can be used in adult men and women (including the elderly), but
is not recommended
for use if you are less than 18 years of age.
DO NOT USE TAVU EYE DROPS SOLUTION:

if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to either of the medicines in
Tavu (latanoprost or
timolol), beta-blockers, or any of the other ingredients of Tavu
(listed in section 6)

if you have now or have had in past
