CAREPROST EYE DROPS are specifically formulated to reduce elevated intraocular pressure in adults with glaucoma and ocular hypertension. By enhancing the flow of fluid from the inside of the eye into the bloodstream, CAREPROST helps prevent potential damage to the optic nerve and vision loss, making it a crucial part of eye health management.
Usage Instructions
Dosage: Instill one drop in the affected eye(s) once daily, as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
Administration: Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and apply the drop without touching the eye or applicator.
Consistency: For best results, use the drops at the same time each day.
Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before application and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting.
Medicinal Advantages
CAREPROST offers significant benefits:
Pressure Reduction: Effectively lowers intraocular pressure, essential for glaucoma management.
Protective Effect: Prevents optic nerve damage and potential vision loss.
Well-Tolerated: Generally safe with minimal side effects when used as directed.
Mechanism of Action
CAREPROST contains bimatoprost, which works by enhancing the outflow of aqueous humor (the fluid inside the eye) into the bloodstream. This action reduces intraocular pressure, protecting the optic nerve from damage associated with high eye pressure.
Off-Label Uses
While primarily used for glaucoma, CAREPROST may also be prescribed off-label for other eye conditions at the discretion of your healthcare provider.
Expert Advice
For optimal results, follow your healthcare provider’s instructions closely regarding dosage and application. Regular eye examinations are important to monitor intraocular pressure and overall eye health.
Precautions
Allergies: Inform your healthcare provider of any allergies to bimatoprost or other components.
Existing Eye Conditions: Discuss any history of eye diseases or conditions prior to use.
Pregnancy and Lactation: Consult your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Storage Conditions
Store CAREPROST EYE DROPS in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and do not use past the expiration date.
