How To Use
  • Wash your hands before applying eye drops.
  • To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface.
  • Travoprost contains a preservative that may stain contact lenses.
  • If you are wearing contact lenses, remove them before using your eye drops.
  • The lenses may be reinserted 15 minutes after your eye medications are used.
  • Tilt your head back, gaze upward and pull down the lower eyelid to make a pouch.
  • Hold the dropper directly over the eye and instill the prescribed number of drops.
  • Look downward and gently close your eye for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Place one finger at the corner of the eye near the nose and apply gentle pressure.
  • This will prevent the medication from draining away from the eye.
  • Try not to blink and do not rub the eye.
  • Do not rinse the dropper.
  • Replace the dropper cap after each use.
  • If you are using another kind of eye medication (e.g., drops or ointments), wait at least five minutes before applying other medications.
  • Use eye drops before eye ointments, to allow the eye drops to enter the eye.
  • Generally, you place one drop of travoprost in the affected eye(s) once daily, in the evening, or as directed.
  • Use of Travatan more often than once a day may decrease its effectiveness.
  • Continue using it for the full time prescribed.
  • If any other eye conditions develop (e.g., infection, injury, surgery), consult your eye doctor regarding continued use of your current bottle of travoprost.
  • You may be advised to start using a new bottle.

Side Effects
  • Eye redness, discomfort, or itching may occur.
  • If these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor promptly.
  • Tell your doctor immediately if you have this unlikely but serious side effect: vision changes.
  • Travoprost may slowly cause permanent darkening of the eye (iris), eyelid, and eyelashes.
  • Growth of the eyelashes may also occur.
  • Consult your doctor for more details.
  • If you notice other effects not listed above, contact your doctor or pharmacist.

Precautions
  • Tell your doctor your medical history, especially of: kidney or liver disease, other eye disorders (macular edema, iritis, uveitis, lens extraction), any allergies.
  • Travatan should not be used during pregnancy; it may cause a miscarriage.
  • If you become pregnant or think you may be pregnant, inform your doctor immediately.
  • Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should avoid contact with the contents of the travoprost bottle.
  • If skin contact with the liquid occurs, thoroughly wash the affected area immediately with soap and water.
  • It is not known whether Travatan passes into breast milk.
  • Consult your doctor before breast-feeding.

Missed Dose
  • If you miss a dose, use it as soon as you remember.
  • If it is near the time of the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume your usual dosing schedule.
  • Do not double the dose to catch up.

Drug Interactions
  • Tell your doctor of all prescription and nonprescription medication you may use.
  • Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.
