TRAVATAN contains travoprost,a substance belonging to the group of drugs called prostaglandin analogues. It works by lowering intraocular pressure. It can be used alone or in
addition to other eye drops such as beta-blockers, which are also able to reduce the pressure.
TRAVATAN is used to reduce high intraocular pressure in adults, adolescents and
children from 2 months of age onwards.This pressure can lead to a condition called glaucoma.

- Wash your hands
- Unscrew the cap
- Hold the bottle in your hand, between your thumb and other fingers, and hold it with the tip pointing downwards
- Tilt your head back or gently tilt the child's head back. Lower the lower eyelid with a clean finger, so as to form a “pocket” between the eyelid and the eye. The drop should be inserted there (figure 2)
- Hold the tip of the bottle close to the eye. Using a mirror may be helpful
- Do not touch the eye or eyelid, the surrounding areas or other surfaces with the tip of thebottle.This could contaminate the eye drops
- Gently press the bottle to release one drop of TRAVATAN at a time. (figure 3)
- After using TRAVATAN, keep your eyes closed, apply gentle pressure with a finger to the corner of the eye, near the nose (figure 4)for at least one minute. This helps to prevent TRAVATAN from spreading throughout the body
- If you are using the eye drops in both eyes, repeat the steps for the other eye
- Close the cap tightly immediately after use
- Use only one bottle at a time. Do not open the outer protective packaging until you are ready to use the bottle.
If a drop does not enter the eye, try again.

allow at least 5 minutes to pass between instilling TRAVATAN and instilling other preparations.
If you or the child use more TRAVATAN than you should
Wash all the medicine away with lukewarm water. Do not use the eye drops until the time of the
next dose.
If you forget to use TRAVATAN
Continue treatment with the next dose as scheduled. Do nottake a double doseto
make up for a missed dose. Never use more than one drop per day per eye(s)
affected.
If you stop treatment with TRAVATAN
Do not stop treatment with TRAVATAN without first talking to your doctor or
pediatrician, intraocular pressure will not be controlled with possible loss of vision.
If you have any questions about the use of the medicine, ask your doctor, pediatrician or pharmacist.
