1. What is Umostil and what is it used for
Umostil contains travoprost, a substance belonging to the group of prostaglandin analogues. It works by reducing the pressure inside the eye. It can be used alone or with other eye drops, for example beta-blockers which can lower the pressure.
Umostil eye drops are used for the treatment of high intraocular pressure in adults, adolescents and children from 2 months of age and older. This pressure can cause a disease called glaucoma.
2. What you need to know before using Umostil
Do not useUmostil
if you are allergic to travoprost or any of the other ingredients of this
medicine (listed in section 6).
In this case, consult your doctor.
Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Umostil.
- Umostil may increase the length, thickness, colour and/or number of eyelashes. Changes to the eyelids have also been observed, including abnormal growth of hair or tissue around the eye.
- Umostil may change the colour of the iris (the coloured part of the eye). This change may be permanent. A change in the colour of the skin around the eye may also occur.
- If you have undergone cataract surgery, talk to your doctor before using Umostil
- If you currently have or have had in the past an eye inflammation(iritis and uveitis), talk to your doctor before using Umostil
- Umostil can rarely cause shortness of breath or wheezing or worsen asthma symptoms. If you are concerned about changes in your breathing while using travoprost, contact your doctor as soon as possible.
- Umostil can be absorbed through the skin. If any amount of the medicine comes into contact with the skin, it should be washed off immediately. This is especially important for women who are pregnant or trying to become pregnant.
- If you wear soft contact lenses, do not use the eye drops while wearing the lenses. Wait 15 minutes after using the eye drops before putting the lenses back in.
Children and adolescents
Umostil can be used in children from 2 months to 18 years of age at the same dose as adults.
The use of Umostil is not recommended in children under 2 months of age.
Other medicines andUmostil
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might
take any other medicines.
Pregnancy, breastfeeding and fertility
If you are pregnant, suspect you may be pregnant, or are planning a pregnancy,
or if you are breastfeeding
with breast milk, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this
medicine.
Pregnancy
Do not use Umostil if you are pregnant. If you suspect you are pregnant, talk
to your doctor immediately. If you are of childbearing potential, you should use adequate
contraception while using Umostil.
Breastfeeding
Do not use Umostil if you are breastfeeding as Umostil may pass into breast milk.
Driving and operating machinery
For a certain period of time after using travoprost, you may experience temporary
blurred vision. Do not drive or operate machinery until the symptoms have completely
disappeared.
Umostil contains benzalkonium chloride.
Benzalkonium chloride can be absorbed by soft contact lenses and can lead to
changes in their colour. Remove your contact lenses before using this medicine and wait
15 minutes before reinserting them. Benzalkonium chloride can also cause eye irritation
especially if you have dry eyes or corneal disorders (the transparent outermost layer
of the eye). If you experience any abnormal eye sensation, burning or pain after using
this medicine, talk to your doctor.
3. How to use Umostil
Always use this medicine exactly as your doctor or
paediatrician has instructed. If you have any doubts, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
The recommended dose is 1 drop in the affected eye or in both eyes, once a
day,in the evening.
Use Umostil in both eyes only as prescribed by your doctor. Use the medicine
for the period of time recommended by your doctor or paediatrician.
Use Umostil onlyto instill drops into your or your child's eyes.
Instructions for use
- 1. Before using this medicine for the first time, make sure that the tamper-evident seal is intact
- 2. Wash your hands and sit comfortably.
- 3. Unscrew the cap.
- 4. Remove the tamper-evident seal from the bottle.
- 5. Use your finger to gently pull down the lower eyelid of the affected eye.
- 6. Hold the end of the bottle close to the eye or eyelid, avoiding contact between the end of the bottle and the eyelids/surrounding area or other surfaces due to the risk of contamination and subsequent serious eye infections.
- 7. Gently press the bottle to allow one drop to enter the eye and then release the lower eyelid.
If the drop does not enter the eye, try again.
- 8. After using Umostil, press your finger against the inner corner of the eye near the nose for 2 minutes. This helps to prevent Umostil from spreading throughout the body.
- 9. Repeat the procedure for the other eye if your doctor has told you to do so.
- 10. Replace the cap on the bottle.
The dropper is designed to deliver a single drop. Do not enlarge the hole in the
dropper.
After dispensing all the dose, a small amount of medicine will remain in the bottle. You do not
need to worry about this as an extra amount of Umostil has been added and you have used
the total amount of Umostil that your doctor has prescribed. Do not try to remove the
excess medicine from the bottle.
