Contents of the pack and other information
1.
WHAT XALACOM IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Xalacom contains two medicines: latanoprost and timolol. Latanoprost
belongs to a
group of medicines known as prostaglandin analogues. Timolol belongs
to a group of
medicines known as beta-blockers. Latanoprost works by increasing the
natural
outflow of fluid from the eye into the bloodstream. Timolol works by
slowing the
formation of fluid in the eye.
Xalacom is used to reduce the pressure in your eye if you have
conditions known as
open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Both these conditions are
linked to an
increase in the pressure within your eye, eventually affecting your
eyesight. Your
doctor will usually prescribe you Xalacom when other medicines have
not worked
adequately.
2.
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU USE XALACOM
Xalacom can be used in adult men and women (including the elderly),
but is not
recommended for use if you are less than 18 years of age.
DO NOT USE XALACOM:

if you are allergic (hypersensitive) to either of the medicines in
Xalacom
(latanoprost or timolol), beta-blockers, or any of the other
ingredients of Xalacom
(listed in section 6)
