### Product Description
**Careprost Eye Drop (0.03% w/v)**
**Active Ingredient:** Bimatoprost 0.03% w/v
### Composition
– **Active Ingredient:** Bimatoprost 0.03% w/v
– **Inactive Ingredients:** Sodium chloride, sodium phosphate dibasic, citric acid, and purified water

### Indications

– **Open-Angle Glaucoma:** To reduce elevated intraocular pressure.
– **Ocular Hypertension:** To manage elevated intraocular pressure in patients without glaucoma.
### Mechanism of Action
Bimatoprost, the active ingredient in Careprost, is a synthetic prostamide analog. It works by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor through the trabecular meshwork and uveoscleral pathways in the eye. This helps to reduce intraocular pressure.
### Dosage and Administration
– **Recommended Dose:** One drop in the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening.
– **Application Instructions:**
– Wash hands before use.
– Tilt your head back and pull down the lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
– Hold the dropper above the eye and squeeze out one drop.
– Close the eye for 1-2 minutes and apply gentle pressure to the inner corner of the eye.
– Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface to prevent contamination.
– If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting.
### Side Effects
Common side effects may include:
– Eye redness (conjunctival hyperemia)
– Itching sensation in the eye (ocular pruritus)
– Burning sensation or eye discomfort
– Darkening of the iris, eyelid skin, and eyelashes
– Increased growth of eyelashes
Less common but serious side effects include:
– Eye pain
– Changes in vision
– Increased intraocular pressure
### Precautions
– **Pigmentation Changes:** Bimatoprost can cause a gradual change in the color of the iris, which may be permanent.
– **Eyelash Changes:** It may cause changes in eyelash length, thickness, and number, which are usually reversible after discontinuation.
– **Hygiene:** Ensure the dropper tip does not touch any surface to avoid contamination.
– **Medical History:** Inform your healthcare provider of any eye conditions or surgeries you have had.
### Storage
– Store at room temperature (15-25°C).

### Conclusion
Careprost Eye Drops are effective for reducing elevated intraocular pressure in conditions such as open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor the effectiveness and safety of the treatment.
