Lupitros-Z Eye Drop BKC Free

Lupitros-Z Eye Drop BKC Free is a prescription eye drop that contains travoprost in each drop, as labelled on the pack. Travoprost is a prostaglandin analogue used to lower pressure inside the eye. It is prescribed for open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension, where reducing eye pressure can help protect vision.

How it works: Travoprost works by helping fluid drain out of the eye more easily, which lowers pressure inside the eye. As an eye drop, Lupitros-Z Eye Drop BKC Free delivers the medicine directly where it is needed.

Because Lupitros-Z Eye Drop BKC Free is an as-labelled single-strength eye drop, it is meant for use exactly as your eye doctor directs rather than as a self-selected dose. This eye-drop form is suitable for patients who need a prostaglandin glaucoma medicine delivered directly to the eye, and the BKC-free formulation may be preferred in people who need a preservative-free option or who are sensitive to preservatives.

• Open-angle glaucoma
• Ocular hypertension
• Lowering raised eye pressure
• Help reduce risk of optic nerve damage from high eye pressure

• Wash your hands before using Lupitros-Z Eye Drop BKC Free.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the eye.
• Do not let the dropper tip touch your eye, eyelid, fingers, or any surface.
• Close your eye gently for 1 to 2 minutes after the drop; do not blink hard or rub the eye.
• If you use other eye medicines, wait at least 5 minutes between products unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Use it exactly at the time your prescriber recommends, commonly in the evening for travoprost eye drops.

Lupitros-Z Eye Drop BKC Free provides travoprost as labelled in each eye drop, and the usual use for travoprost eye drops is 1 drop in the affected eye(s) once daily. Do not use more than 1 dose in a day unless your doctor specifically instructs otherwise, because extra doses do not usually improve pressure control and may increase side effects. Your eye doctor decides the exact schedule based on your condition and eye pressure response.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Travoprost may include:

• Eye redness
• Eye irritation or stinging after instillation
• Blurred vision for a short time after use
• Eye itching
• Dry eye or watery eye
• Darkening of the iris or eyelid skin over time
• Longer, thicker, or darker eyelashes; this may be more noticeable with ongoing use

• Use only in the eye; do not swallow Lupitros-Z Eye Drop BKC Free.
• If you wear contact lenses, ask your eye doctor when to insert them after dosing; eye drops may require waiting before reinsertion.
• This medicine can slowly change eye color or eyelash appearance, especially with longer use.
• Tell your doctor if you have a history of uveitis, iritis, macular swelling, or eye surgery.
• Use caution when driving or using machinery right after the drop if your vision is blurred.
• Tell your prescriber if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
• Do not use this medicine more often than prescribed, since more frequent use may reduce effectiveness and increase irritation.

• Other glaucoma eye drops, especially if used at the same time without spacing them out
• Other prostaglandin eye medicines, unless your eye doctor specifically approves the combination
• Contact lenses, which may interact with the way the eye drop is used because of the preservative-free formulation requirements
• Any other eye drops or ointments, because timing matters and they may affect absorption
