Biotrav-T (Travoprost and Timolol Maleate) Ophthalmic Solution is a prescription eye drop used to manage elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in individuals with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It combines two medications—travoprost (a prostaglandin analog) and timolol maleate (a non-selective beta-blocker)—to reduce IOP through complementary mechanisms. ________________________________________ ✅ Primary Uses • Open-Angle Glaucoma: A common form of glaucoma characterized by gradual loss of vision due to increased IOP. • Ocular Hypertension: Elevated IOP without optic nerve damage, which can lead to glaucoma if untreated. ________________________________________ 💊 Dosage and Administration • Recommended Dosage: Instill one drop into the affected eye(s) once daily, preferably in the evening. • Application Tips: o Wash hands before use. o Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to prevent contamination. o If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Precautions and Contraindications • Contraindications: o Hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation. o Active or suspected ocular infections. o History of hypersensitivity to beta-blockers. • Cautions: o Use with caution in patients with cardiovascular or pulmonary diseases, as timolol may exacerbate conditions like asthma, bradycardia, or heart block. o Monitor for potential systemic absorption effects, including hypotension or bradycardia. o Consult a healthcare provider before use if pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. ________________________________________

Timipar (Timolol Maleate 0.5%) Ophthalmic Solution is a prescription eye drop used to manage elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in conditions such as open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension. By reducing the production of fluid within the eye, it helps lower IOP, thereby reducing the risk of optic nerve damage and potential vision loss. ________________________________________ ✅ Primary Uses • Open-Angle Glaucoma: A common form of glaucoma where the drainage angle in the eye remains open, but the trabecular meshwork is partially blocked, leading to increased IOP. • Ocular Hypertension: A condition characterized by higher-than-normal IOP without any signs of glaucoma damage. ________________________________________ 💊 Dosage and Administration • Typical Dosage: Instill one drop of the 0.5% solution into the affected eye(s) twice daily. • Application Tips: o Wash your hands before use. o Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to prevent contamination. o If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. o After instilling the drop, gently press the corner of your eye (near the nose) for 1–2 minutes to prevent the medication from draining out. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Precautions and Contraindications • Contraindications: o Hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation. o Bronchial asthma or a history of bronchial asthma. o Severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). o Sinus bradycardia, second- or third-degree atrioventricular block, overt cardiac failure, or cardiogenic shock. • Cautions: o Use with caution in patients with a history of heart disease, diabetes, or thyroid disorders, as beta-blockers can mask symptoms of hypoglycemia and hyperthyroidism. o Monitor for potential additive effects when used with other systemic beta-blockers. ________________________________________ 🧪 Mechanism of Action Timolol is a non-selective beta-adrenergic antagonist (beta-blocker) that reduces aqueous humor production in the eye, leading to a decrease in IOP. Its onset of action is typically within 20 minutes, with effects lasting up to 24 hours.

Blink Plus (Polyethylene & Propylene Glycol) Ophthalmic Solution is an over-the-counter eye drop formulation designed to provide relief for dry or irritated eyes. Here's an overview of its uses, dosage, side effects, and safety considerations: ________________________________________ 🔍 Uses Blink Plus combines two lubricating agents: • Polyethylene Glycol 400 (0.4%): Acts as a lubricant to relieve dryness and irritation by providing moisture to the eyes. It creates a protective layer on the eye's surface, reducing discomfort and enhancing tear film stability. Propylene Glycol (0.3%): Functions as a solvent and humectant, helping to dissolve and stabilize the active ingredients while attracting moisture to the eye, aiding in hydration and alleviating dryness. This combination is used to treat dry eye symptoms caused by environmental factors such as wind, sun, air conditioning, or prolonged screen time. ________________________________________ 💧 Dosage and Administration • General Dosage: Instill one or two drops into the affected eye(s) as needed. • Application Method: 1. Wash your hands thoroughly before use. 2. Tilt your head back slightly and pull down the lower eyelid to form a pouch. 3. Hold the dropper above the eye and instill the prescribed number of drops. 4. Close the eye gently and apply gentle pressure to the inner corner of the eye for 1 to 2 minutes to prevent the medication from draining away. 5. Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to prevent contamination. ________________________________________ ⚠️ Safety and Side Effects • Common Side Effects: o Temporary blurred vision. o Mild burning or stinging sensation upon application. o Eye discomfort or irritation. • Redness or watering of the eyes. • Serious Side Effects: o Persistent eye pain or swelling. o Allergic reactions such as rash, itching, swelling, or severe dizziness. • Precautions: o Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as the safety of Blink Plus during these periods is not well-established. o Use with caution if you have a history of eye infections or other eye conditions. o Avoid driving or operating machinery if you experience blurred vision or visual disturbances.
