Reduction of elevated intraocular pressure in open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension

Bimatoprost is a prostaglandin analogue that increases outflow of aqueous humour mainly via the uveoscleral pathway (and also trabecular outflow). This lowers intraocular pressure and helps protect the optic nerve.

For ophthalmic use only. Instill 1 drop in the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening, or as directed by the doctor. Remove contact lenses before use and reinsert after 15 minutes. If using other eye drops, keep a 5–10 minute gap.

May cause permanent darkening of iris color and increased eyelash growth; eyelid skin darkening may occur. Use cautiously in patients with history of uveitis/iritis, macular edema (especially aphakic/pseudophakic with torn posterior capsule), or active intraocular inflammation. Avoid touching dropper tip to prevent contamination; discontinue and seek care if severe eye pain, vision changes, or signs of infection occur. Not for injection or oral use.
