Reduction of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension when combination therapy is required.
How It Works
Tafluprost is a prostaglandin F2α analogue that increases uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humour, lowering IOP. Timolol is a non-selective beta-blocker that reduces aqueous humour production, further decreasing IOP.
Directions for Use
For ophthalmic use only. Instill 1 drop in the affected eye(s) once daily, preferably in the evening, or as prescribed by the ophthalmologist. If using other eye drops, keep a gap of 5–10 minutes; remove contact lenses before use and reinsert after 15 minutes (if applicable).
Use with caution in patients with asthma/COPD, bradycardia, heart block, or heart failure due to timolol systemic absorption; may cause bronchospasm or slow heart rate. Prostaglandin analogues may cause permanent iris pigmentation changes and eyelash changes. Avoid touching dropper/vial tip to prevent contamination. Use caution in history of uveitis, macular edema, or aphakia/pseudophakia with torn posterior lens capsule. Do not stop abruptly without medical advice; monitor IOP regularly.

Other beta-blockers (oral or ophthalmic) may increase risk of bradycardia/hypotension; calcium channel blockers (verapamil/diltiazem), digoxin, antiarrhythmics (e.g., amiodarone) may enhance cardiac effects; clonidine withdrawal may worsen hypertension; CYP2D6 inhibitors (e.g., fluoxetine, paroxetine, quinidine) may increase timolol levels; other IOP-lowering eye drops may have additive effects.
Storage Instructions
