WHAT TAPCOM IS USED FOR
TAPCOM
is
used
to
treat
a
type
of
glaucoma
called
open
angle
glaucoma
and also a condition known as ocular
hypertension
in
adults.
Both
of
these
conditions are linked with an increase in
the
pressure
within
your
eye
and
eventually they may affect your eyesight.
HOW TAPCOM WORKS
TAPCOM ophthalmic solution contains
tafluprost
and
timolol.
Tafluprost
belongs to a group of medicines called
prostaglandin
analogues
and
timolol
belongs to a group of medicines called
beta
blockers.
Tafluprost
and
timolol
work together and lower the pressure in
the
eye.
TAPCOM
is
used
when
the
pressure in the eye is too high.

past respiratory problems such as

breathing
and/or
long-standing
cough).
•
if you have a slow heartbeat, heart
failure,
atrioventricular
block
or
