1. WHAT IS THE MEDICINE INTENDED FOR?
To reduce intraocular pressure in cases of open-angle glaucoma
or intraocular hypertension that are insufficiently responsive to
topical beta blockers or prostaglandin analogs.

Travoprost – prostaglandin analog, which works by increasing the
outflow of aqueous fluid from the eye, thereby lowering ocular

The two substances work together to reduce pressure within the
eye.
