Duotrav/Travoprost+Timolol

Duotrav eye drop solution contains two active substances: Travoprost and Timolol Maleate. These two components lower the intraocular pressure through complementary mechanisms of action and the effect combined produces an additional reduction in IOP compared to each of the components separately.

Travoprost, an analogue of prostaglandin F2a, is a very complete agonist. selective having a high affinity for the PF receptor of prostaglandins and reduces intraocular pressure by increasing drainage of aqueous humor through the trabecular meshwork and uveoscleral route. The reduction of IOP in humans starts within approximately 2 hours after administration and the maximum effect is reached after 12 hours. You can keep a significant reduction in intraocular pressure with a single dose during periods longer than 24 hours.

Timolol is a non-selective adrenergic blocking agent that lacks intrinsic sympathomimetic activity, the direct depressant activity of the myocardium, or membrane-stabilizing activity. Human studies with tomography and fluorophotometry suggest that its predominant action is related to reduced aqueous humor formation and a slightly increased outflow.

DuoTrav is used to reduce intraocular pressure. It is used in adult patients who have "open-angle glaucoma" or "ocular hypertension" who do not respond sufficiently to eye drops containing beta-blockers or prostaglandin analogues (other drugs used for these conditions).

Intraocular pressure means that the pressure inside the eye is higher than normal. In open-angle glaucoma, the pressure increases because the eye does not drain enough fluid.

The recommended dose is one drop in the affected eye (s) or eye (s), once-daily - morning or evening. Use it at the same time each day. DuoTrav should only be applied to both eyes if your doctor has recommended it.
